Abstract
Here, we present the first examination of the state of water under a soft confinement in eight aliphatic alcohols including cyclopentanol, 1-pentanol, 1-hexanol, 1-heptanol, 1-octanol, 1-decanol, 2-octanol and 3-octanol. Due to relatively large size of the aliphatic part, water has limited solubility in all studied alcohols. Water content in saturated solutions was determined by Karl Fischer titration and correlated with the spectroscopic data. This way, we determined the molar absorptivity of the ν2+ν3 combination mode. The effect of addition of water and temperature variation was monitored by ATR-IR and NIR spectroscopy. Analysis of the experimental results was guided by DFT calculations, which provided the structures, harmonic MIR spectra and binding energies of selected alcohol-water complexes. Our studies demonstrated that the state of water in alcohols is related to its solubility, which depends on structure of solvent molecules. The solubility of water in 1-alcohols decreases on increasing of the chain length, but for long chain alcohols this effect is less evident. More apparent solubility reduction appears in going from the primary to secondary alcohols. The effective shielding of the OH group in the linear alcohols is achieved when on both sides of the OH group are ethyl or longer substituents, while the shielding by methyl groups is less efficient. Water is much better soluble in the cyclic alcohols as compared with the linear ones due to better accessibility of the OH group. The soft confinement of water in aliphatic alcohols allows for flexible structural arrangements and interactions. Even at low water content, we did not observe free molecules of water. At these conditions, the molecules of water are singly or doubly bonded to the OH groups from the alcohol. Increasing solubility of water reduces the number of the free OH groups and leads to formation of water clusters. Obtained results allow concluding that in alcohols with sizable aliphatic part the molecules of water are confined in the vicinity of the OH groups.

Abstract
This work provides new insight into the state of water in a series of aliphatic ketones. For our studies, we selected nine aliphatic ketones of different size and structure to examine the effect of various structural motifs on behavior of water in the mixtures. Our results reveal that conformational flexibility of aliphatic chains in the linear ketones allows for effective shielding of the carbonyl group, and this flexibility is the main reason for poor solubility of water. Hence, in the linear ketones molecules of water are involved mostly in ketone-water interactions, while the water-water interactions are rare. Higher solubility of water in the cyclic ketones allows for creation of clusters of water, where the molecules are in water-like environment. The temperature rise in wet cyclic ketones increases population of ketone-water interactions at the expense of the water-water ones, while in the linear ketones and 2,6-dimethylcyclohexanone at an elevated temperature there is an increase in the population of singly bonded water at the expense of the doubly bonded one. DFT calculations reveal that the substitution of cyclohexanone by a single methyl group does not affect the strength of the ketone-water interactions, while it has a significant impact on the solubility of water in the ketone. The most important conclusion from this study is that the accessibility of the carbonyl group is the most important factor determining the intermolecular interactions and solubility of water in aliphatic ketones.

Abstract
Near-infrared (12,500–4,000 cm−1; 800–2,500 nm) spectroscopy is the hallmark for one of the most rapidly advancing analytical techniques over the last few decades. Although it is mainly recognized as an analytical tool, near-infrared spectroscopy has also contributed significantly to physical chemistry, e.g., by delivering invaluable data on the anharmonic nature of molecular vibrations or peculiarities of intermolecular interactions. In all these contexts, a major barrier in the form of an intrinsic complexity of near-infrared spectra has been encountered. A large number of overlapping vibrational contributions influenced by anharmonic effects create complex patterns of spectral dependencies, in many cases hindering our comprehension of near-infrared spectra. Quantum mechanical calculations commonly serve as a major support to infrared and Raman studies; conversely, near-infrared spectroscopy has long been hindered in this regard due to practical limitations. Advances in anharmonic theories in hyphenation with ever-growing computer technology have enabled feasible theoretical near-infrared spectroscopy in recent times. Accordingly, a growing number of quantum mechanical investigations aimed at near-infrared region has been witnessed. The present review article summarizes these most recent accomplishments in the emerging field. Applications of generalized approaches, such as vibrational self-consistent field and vibrational second order perturbation theories as well as their derivatives, and dense grid-based studies of vibrational potential, are overviewed. Basic and applied studies are discussed, with special attention paid to the ones which aim at improving analytical spectroscopy. A remarkable potential arises from the growing applicability of anharmonic computations to solving the problems which arise in both basic and analytical near-infrared spectroscopy. This review highlights an increased value of quantum mechanical calculations to near-infrared spectroscopy in relation to other kinds of vibrational spectroscopy.

Abstract
Here we report ATR-IR spectroscopic study on the separation at a molecular level (microheterogeneity) and the degree of deviation of H2O/CH3OH and H2O/CD3OH mixtures from the ideal mixture. Of particular interest is the effect of isotopic substitution in methyl group on molecular structure and interactions in both mixtures. To obtain comprehensive information from the multivariate data we applied the excess molar absorptivity spectra together with two-dimensional correlation analysis (2DCOS) and chemometric methods. In addition, the experimental results were compared and discussed with the structures of various model clusters obtained from theoretical (DFT) calculations. Our results evidence the presence of separation at a molecular level and deviation from the ideal mixture for both mixtures. The experimental and theoretical results show that the maximum of these deviations appears at equimolar mixture. Both mixtures consist of three kinds of species: homoclusters of water and methanol and mixed clusters (heteroclusters). The heteroclusters exist in the whole range of mole fractions with the maximum close to the equimolar mixture. At this mixture composition near 55-60% of molecules are involved in heteroclusters. In contrast, the homoclusters of water occur in a limited range of mole fractions (XME < 0.85-0.9). Upon mixing the molecules of methanol form weaker hydrogen bonding as compared with the pure alcohol. In contrast, the molecules of water in the mixture are involved in stronger hydrogen bonding than those in bulk water. All these results indicate that both mixtures have similar degree of deviation from the ideal mixture.
