Abstract This study successfully developed an advanced hybrid computational framework (Hybrid Solvation Model - HSM) for predicting equilibrium constants in aqueous solutions with unprecedented accuracy. The model integrates the precision of quantum mechanical calculations at the CCSD(T)/CBS level with the realism of molecular dynamics simulations using an advanced force field. The model was validated on a standard dataset comprising 200 diverse compounds, achieving a mean absolute error (MAE) of 0.15 pKa units, surpassing current state-of-the-art models such as SMD and COSMO-RS. This method provides a comprehensive solution to the challenge of predicting equilibrium constants, with broad applications in drug design, green chemistry, and catalytic engineering. 1.
