Abstract
MOTIVATION: The acid dissociation constant (pKa) is a critical parameter to reflect the ionization ability of chemical compounds and is widely applied in a variety of industries. However, the experimental determination of pKa is intricate and time-consuming, especially for the exact determination of micro-pKa information at the atomic level. Hence, a fast and accurate prediction of pKa values of chemical compounds is of broad interest.
