Quantifying the Stability of the Hydronium Ion in Organic Solvents With Molecular Dynamics Simulations
The solution-phase stability of the hydronium ion catalyst significantly affects the rates of acid-catalyzed reactions, which are ubiquitously utilized to convert biomass to valuable chemicals. In this work, classical molecular dynamics simulations were performed to quantify the stability of hydroni...
