理论研究了电子激发和溶剂效应导致的芴酮-甲醇复合体系中分子间氢键增强现象．通过基态和激发态性质的计算，不仅展示了分子间氢键键长的变化以及变化在振动光谱中的影响，而且揭示了导致氢键变化的内在物理机制：溶质分子的电子激发及溶剂化效应引起的电子重新分布，增大了溶质和溶剂分子的偶极矩，导致了它们之间的相互作用的增大，并最终加强了分子间氢键的强度．还分别对处于液相及气相中的复合体的基态和激发态的几何结构、红外谱、复合体及构成分子的偶极矩进行了理论计算，结果阐明了电子激发与溶剂化效应对氢键变化的贡献，同时还发现只有进一步引入溶剂化效应，复合体的基态、激发态的性质才能与实验达到精确一致．所有激发态均采用所开发的基于含时密度泛函理论解析计算一阶、二阶激发态能量导数的方法．

Theoretical Insights into Intermolecular Hydrogen-Bonding Strengthening in Fluorenone-Methanol Complexes Induced by Electronic Excitation and Bulk Solvent Effect (cited: 1)

This work presents a theoretical insight into the variation of the site-specific intermolecular hydrogen-bonding (HB), formed between C=O group of fluorenone (FN) and O?H groups of methanol (MeOL) molecules, induced by both the electronic excitation and the bulk solvent effect. Through the calculation of molecular ground- and excited-state properties, we not only demonstrate the characters of HB strengthening induced by electronic excitation and the bulk solvent effect but also reveal the underlying physical mechanism which leads to the HB variation. The strengthening of the intermolecular HB in electronically excited states and in liquid solution is characterized by the reduced HB bond-lengths and the red-shift IR spectra accompanied by the increasing intensities of IR absorption corresponding to the characteristic vibrational modes of the O-H and C=O stretching. The HB strengthening in the excited electronic states and in solution mainly arises from the charge redistribution of the FN molecule induced by the electronic excitation and bulk solvent instead of the intermolecular charge transfer. The charge redistribution of the solute molecule increases the partial dipole moment of FN molecule and the FN-MeOL intermolecular interaction, which subsequently leads to the HB strengthening. With the bulk solvent effect getting involved, the theoretical IR spectra of HBed FN-MeOL complexes agree much better with the experiments than those of gas-phase FN-MeOL dimer. All the calculations are carried out based on our developed analytical approaches for the first and second energy derivatives of excited electronic state within the time-dependent density functional theory.
