Dear zgleo,
A value of -134 Kcal/mol is aprox. the interaction between ions...(with +1
and -1 charges), continuum solvent models are useful for describing
long-range interaction effects but fail when describe first solvation shell
effects. You should consider to add explicit solvent molecules (plus a
continuum model if you wish). Another problem is to consider to add
contra-ions to compensate the -2 charge...
good luck...
GS.
