Impact of Quadrupolar Electrostatics on Atoms Adjacent to the Sigma-Hole in Condensed-Phase Simulations
J. Chem. Theory Comput. 12 (2016)
Analysis of pair distribution functions and hydration free energies of halogenated benzenes provides a microscopic explanation why “point charge”-based representations with off-site charges fail in reproducing thermodynamic properties of the sigma-hole.
