We propose a general strategy to remediate force-field artifacts in describing pairwise interactions among similar molecules M in the vicinity of another chemical species, C, like water molecules interacting at short distance from a monoatomic ion. This strategy is based on introducing a three-body potential energy term that alters the pairwise interactions among M-type molecules when they lie at short range from the species C. In other words the species C is the center of a space domain where the pairwise interactions among the molecules M is altered. Here, we apply it to improve the description of the water interactions provided by the polarizable water model TCPE/2013 in the vicinity of halides, from F- to At- , and of the prototypical carboxylate anion CH3 COO- . We show the accuracy and the transferability of such an approach to investigate not only the hydration process of single anions but also of a salt solution NH4+/Cl- in aqueous phase. This strategy can be used to remediate the drawbacks of any kind of force fields. © 2019 Wiley Periodicals, Inc
