Force fields for four small molecules, methane, ethane, methanol, and ethanol, were created by force matching MP2 gradients computed with triple-zeta-quality basis sets using the Adaptive Force Matching method. Without fitting to any experimental properties, the force fields created were able to predict hydration free energies, enthalpies of hydration, and diffusion constants in excellent agreements with experiments. The root mean square error for the predicted hydration free energies is within 1 kJ/mol of experimental measurements of Ben-Naim et al. [J. Chem. Phys. 81(4), 2016–2027 (1984)]. The good prediction of hydration free energies is particularly noteworthy, as it is an important fundamental property. Similar hydration free energies of ethane relative to methane and of ethanol relative to methanol are attributed to a near cancellation of cavitation penalty and favorable contributions from dispersion and Coulombic interactions as a result of the additional methyl group.
