Dear David £¬
      Thank you for your rapid reply.
      I calculate the solvation free energy by using mmpbsa.
      here is the input file:

        here is the output:

   I just wanna know the exact absolut solvation free energy of the ligand(oleic acid).I take the PBSOL as the solvation free energy of the ligand. The result does not seem to be resonable,then what's wrong with the calculation?
   A paper has reported the solvation of acetate ion(-76.79) and acetic acd(-6.70).In my opinion,the solvation free energy of fatty acid will increase as the length of that decreases. But I don't know the precise relationship between them ,linear?hyperbolic?
   Any suggestions are highly appreciated.
best regards
