Theoretical study on the hydrophobic and hydrophilic hydration on large solutes: The case of phthalocyanines in water

A theoretical study on the hydration phenomena of three representative Phthalocyanines (Pcs): the metal-free, H2Pc, and the metal-containing, Cu-phthalocyanine, CuPc, and its soluble sulphonated derivative, [CuPc(SO3)4]4−, is presented. Structural and dynamic properties of molecular dynamics traject...
