Structural characterization of liquid pyrrole has been obtained by performing classical molecular dynamics simulations with a new parameterization of electrostatic interactions. Despite the relatively simple molecular structure of pyrrole, a correct and accurate representation of its intermolecular interactions in bulk phase is a challenging task, since these are affected at short range by the quadrupole–quadrupole term. This new parameterization permits not only to correctly describe the liquid structure but also to obtain macroscopic properties in excellent agreement with experiments.

Abstract

Structural characterization of liquid pyrrole has been obtained by performing classical molecular dynamics simulations with a new parameterization of electrostatic interactions. Despite the relatively simple molecular structure of pyrrole, a correct and accurate representation of its intermolecular interactions in bulk phase is a challenging task, since these are affected at short range by the quadrupole–quadrupole term. This new parameterization permits not only to correctly describe the liquid structure but also to obtain macroscopic properties in excellent agreement with experiments.
