Comparison of the optimized parameter sets microMg and nanoMg with force fields from the literature16,18−20 and experimental data. (A) Solvation free energy ΔGsolv for neutral MgCl2 pairs in correlation with the inverse of the Mg2+–oxygen distance of the first hydration shell 1/R1. The gray area indicates the experimental results from refs (66, 70). (B) Lennard-Jones interaction potential VLJ as a function of the Mg2+–oxygen distance rMgOw for different Mg2+ force fields and TIP3P water.
