Abstract

AbstractThe key to nanoscale control of physical, chemical, and biological processes lies in well‐founded models of noncovalent binding. Atomistic simulations probe the free‐energy surface underlying molecular assembly processes in solution. Two examples of noncovalent binding studied by molecular dynamics simulations are discussed, the dimerization of a water‐soluble perylene bisimide derivative in aqueous solution with a focus on the influence of solvent composition on the aggregation strength and the binding of 1‐butanol to α‐cyclodextrin at infinite dilution with the focus on the determination of method‐independent binding free energies.
