Abstract
A rigid five-site united atom model for dimethyl sulfone (DMSO2) compatible with the GROMOS force field is parametrized and tested. The parameters were optimized with respect to experimental quantities such as liquid density, heat of vaporization, shear viscosity and excess free energy. Good agreement with pure component properties is achieved except for the static dielectric permittivity which is calculated too low. Together with the SPC model for water the new DMSO2 model was used to study aqueous mixtures at low concentrations and compared to aqueous mixtures of DMSO. It is concluded that interaction parameters for sulfoxide oxygen are not directly transferable to sulfonyl oxygen.
