The intermolecular potentials for hexafluorobenzene (HFBz) and 1,3,5-trifluorobenzene (TFBz) interacting with alkali (M(+); M = Li, Na, K, Rb, Cs) and halogen (X(-); X = F, Cl, Br, I) ions are provided as a combination of electrostatic and nonelectrostatic terms. The ion-HFBz and ion-TFBz electrostatic components are formulated as a sum of Coulombic potentials associated with the interactions between the ion charge and point charges on the molecular frame, whose distributions are consistent with the permanent quadrupole moment of HFBz and TFBz, respectively. The corresponding nonelectrostatic components are represented as a sum of effective potential functions, each one having a specific physical meaning, related to ion-molecular bond pair interactions. In the present paper, we test the transferability of the ion-bond potential parameters. Moreover, the powerfulness of the model is analyzed by comparing predicted binding energies and equilibrium geometries for the family of M(+)-HFBz, X(-)-HFBz, M(+)-TFBz, and X(-)-TFBz systems with available ab initio results.
