Abstract

A simulation of phosphate in aqueous solution was carried out employing the new QMCF MD approach which offers the possibility to investigate composite systems with the accuracy of a QMMM method but without the time consuming creation of solute–solvent potential functions. The data of the simulations give a clear picture of the hydration shells of the phosphate anion. The first shell consists of 13 water molecules and each oxygen of the phosphate forms in average three hydrogens bonds to different solvent molecules. Several structural parameters such as radial distribution functions and coordination number distributions allow to fully characterize the embedding of the highly charged phosphate ion in the solvent water. The dynamics of the hydration structure of phosphate are described by mean residence times of the solvent molecules in the first hydration shell and the water exchange rate.
