1,3,5-Tris(4-bromophenyl)benzene prenucleation clusters from meta­dynamics

Recent experimental evidence has shown that the nucleation of 1,3,5-tris(4-bromophenyl)benzene (3BrY) follows a two-step mechanism. In this work, the formation of clusters of 3BrY from homogeneous water and methanol solutions is simulated using metadynamics.
