Abstract
5-Aminoquinoline (5AQ) has been used as a fluorescent probe of preferential solvation (PS) in binary solvent mixtures in which the nonpolar component is diethyl ether and the polar component is protic (methanol) or aprotic (acetonitrile). Hence, the roles of solvent polarity and solute-solvent hydrogen bonding have been delineated. Positive deviations of spectral shifts from a linear dependence on the concentration of the polar component, signifying PS, are markedly more pronounced in case of the protic solvent. Solvation dynamics on a nanosecond time scale mark the formation of the solvation shell around the fluorescent probe. Time-resolved area-normalized emission spectra indicate the occurrence of the continuous solvation of the excited state when the polar component is acetonitrile. In contrast, two distinct states were observed when the polar component was methanol, the second state being the hydrogen bonded one. Translational diffusion is the rate-determining step for formation of the solvation shell. The time constant associated with it has been estimated from rise times observed in fluorescence transients monitored at the red end of the fluorescence spectra and also from the time evolution of the spectral width of time-resolved emission spectra.

Abstract
Two-dimensional infrared (2D-IR) spectroscopy is used to measure the spectral dynamics of the metal carbonyl complex cyclopentadienyl manganese tricarbonyl (CMT) in a series of linear alkyl nitriles. 2D-IR spectroscopy provides direct readout of solvation dynamics through spectral diffusion, probing the decay of frequency correlation induced by fluctuations of the solvent environment. 2D-IR simultaneously monitors intramolecular vibrational energy redistribution (IVR) among excited vibrations, which can also be influenced by the solvent through the spectral density rather than the dynamical friction underlying solvation. Here, we report that the CMT vibrational probe reveals solvent dependences in both the spectral diffusion and the IVR time scales, where each slows with increased alkyl chain length. In order to assess the degree to which solute-solvent interactions can be correlated with bulk solvent properties, we compared our results with low-frequency dynamics obtained from optical Kerr effect (OKE) spectroscopy-performed by others-on the same nitrile solvent series. We find excellent correlation between our spectral diffusion results and the orientational dynamics time scales from OKE. We also find a correlation between our IVR time scales and the amplitudes of the low-frequency spectral densities evaluated at the 90-cm-1 energy difference, corresponding to the gap between the two strong vibrational modes of the carbonyl probe. 2D-IR and OKE provide complementary perspectives on condensed phase dynamics, and these findings provide experimental evidence that at least at the level of dynamical correlations, some aspects of a solute vibrational dynamics can be inferred from properties of the solvent.

Abstract
The preferential solvation behavior for eight different derivatives of protonated quinoline was measured in a tandem differential mobility spectrometer mass spectrometer (DMS-MS). Ion-solvent cluster formation was induced in the DMS by the addition of chemical modifiers (i.e., solvent vapors) to the N2 buffer gas. To determine the effect of more than one modifier in the DMS environment, we performed DMS experiments with varying mixtures of water, acetonitrile, and isopropyl alcohol solvent vapors. The results show that doping the buffer gas with a binary mixture of modifiers leads to the ions binding preferentially to one modifier over another. We used density functional theory to calculate the ion-solvent binding energies, and in all cases, calculations show that the quinolinium ions bind most strongly with acetonitrile, then isopropyl alcohol, and most weakly with water. Computational results support the hypothesis that the quinolinium ions bind exclusively to whichever solvent they have the strongest interaction with, regardless of the presence of other modifier gases.

Abstract
In homogeneous photocatalytic reduction of CO2, it is widely assumed that the primary electron transfer from the sacrificial donor to the catalyst is diffusion controlled, thus little attention has been paid to optimizing this step. We present spectroscopic evidence that the precursor complex is preformed, driven by preferential solvation, and two-dimensional infrared spectroscopy reveals triethanolamine (donor)/tetrahydrofuran (solvent) exchange in the photocatalyst's solvation shell, reaching greatest magnitude at the known optimal concentration (∼20% v/v TEOA in THF) for catalytically reducing CO2 to CO. Transient infrared absorption shows the appearance of the singly reduced catalyst on an ultrafast (<70 ps) time scale, consistent with non-diffusion controlled electron transfer within the preformed precursor complex. Identification of preferential catalyst-cosolvent interactions suggests a revised paradigm for the primary electron transfer, while illuminating the pivotal importance of solvent exchange in determining the overall efficiency of the photocycle.

Abstract
Steady-state absorption, emission, and femtosecond transient absorption spectroscopies were used to ascertain the static and dynamic nature of the solvent response of methanol-chloroform binary solvent mixtures of different stoichiometric ratios using 4-(dicyanomethylene)-2-methyl-6-(4-dimethylaminostyryl)-4H-pyran (DCM) as the probe molecule. The appearance of synergistic solvation behavior in the steady-state absorption measurements can be explained in terms of solvent-solvent interactions through an extended hydrogen-bonding network. The disappearance of such synergistic behavior in the excited state of the DCM dye was recently proposed by us to be due to the weak nature of the intermolecular interactions present in binary solvent mixtures (J. Phys. Chem. B 2012, 116, 1345). It was anticipated and subsequently confirmed by the dynamics of the solvent response that the disruption of the weak interactive solvent network is the main reason for the absence of the synergism in the excited state. As expected, we observed the slowest dynamics for the mixture with X(MeOH) = 0.45, with an average solvation time of 12.03 ps, which is much higher than the values for the pure bulk counterparts (⟨τ(s)⟩(Methanol) = 4.32 ps and ⟨τ(s)⟩(Chloroform) = 1.32 ps). The unprecedented slowing of solvation for DCM is probably due to the rigid interactive methanol-chloroform solvent system in the first solvation shell, followed by solvent rearrangements around the solute dipole. Overall interactions present within the methanol-chloroform binary solvent mixture furnish clear evidence of solvent association through weak hydrogen bonding.

Abstract
In this paper, we explore the role of microscopic heterogeneity of the medium on the spectral response of an excited-state proton-transfer (ESIPT) probe, namely, 4-methyl-2,6-dicarbomethoxyphenol (CMOH) using steady-state and time-resolved emission spectroscopy. The mixtures of two solvents with widely different properties, viz., cyclohexane, a nonpolar, and ethanol, a polar protic solvent, were used as microheterogeneous media for spectroscopic studies. Dual fluorescence (normal and tautomer fluorescence) is observed in the nonpolar solvent (cyclohexane), while only a single peak is observed in the protic solvent, ethanol. The spectral responses of CMOH in the binary mixtures have been found to be dependent on the solvent composition and excitation wavelength. The emission spectral properties of CMOH in the cyclohexane-ethanol mixture have been seen to be superposition of spectral properties in their bulk counterparts, indicating the presence of microscopic heterogeneity in the system. A zwitterionic species of CMOH appears to have been detected in binary solvent mixtures with higher ethanol content only through low-energy excitations. The species is converted into an anionic species as excitation energy increases. Density functional theory calculations indicate that two intramolecularly hydrogen bonded rotamers of CMOH have a small energy difference. The formation of a hydrogen bonded 1:1 molecular cluster of CMOH with ethanol has been investigated in the ground state at the same level of theory. Our findings are expected to shed light on the mechanism of many acid-base reactions occurring in microscopically inhomogeneous media that often mimic many biologically relevant processes.

Abstract
We perform a theoretical study of electronic spectroscopy of dilute NO in supercritical Ar fluid. Absorption and emission lineshapes for the A(2)Sigma(+)<--X(2)Pi Rydberg transition of NO in argon have been previously measured and simulated, which yielded results for the NO/Ar ground- and excited-state pair potentials [Larregaray et al., Chem. Phys. 308, 13 (2005)]. Using these potentials, we have performed molecular dynamics simulations and theoretical statistical mechanical calculations of absorption and emission lineshapes and nonequilibrium solvation correlation functions for a wide range of solvent densities and temperatures. Theory was shown to be in good agreement with simulation. Linear response treatment of solvation dynamics was shown to break down at near-critical temperature due to dramatic change in the solute-solvent microstructure upon solute excitation to the Rydberg state and the concomitant increase of the solute size.

Excited-state intramolecular proton transfer (ESIPT) occurring in the salicylic acid (SA) derivative 5-methoxysalicylic acid (5-MeOSA) in an apolar solvent (cyclohexane) and in the presence of the hydrogen bond accepting agent diethyl ether (DEE) is investigated. Analysis of the directly measured subnanosecond time-resolved emission spectra (TRES) together with conventional steady-state fluorescence and time-correlated single-photon-counting (TCSPC) decays indicates that ESIPT in this system occurs much faster than fluorescence, and that the equilibrium between normal and tautomeric excited states is established before the emission from both states takes place. However, changes in time- and frequency-resolved fluorescence of the 5-MeOSA/DEE complex are observed due to structural relaxation within the complex, which is reflected in the dynamic Stokes shift of the tautomeric fluorescence band. The normal fluorescence band of 5-MeOSA/DEE does not exhibit marked changes within the investigated time range. A single-exponential relaxation time of 460 ps was determined for the dynamic Stokes shift of the tautomeric band, and it is attributed to a geometric change within the 5-MeOSA/DEE complex upon excitation. Since both tautomeric and normal emission bands are well resolved and exhibit different time-dependent behaviors, a double-well potential appears to be adequate to describe the excited state of the system studied.

Abstract
We explored the time-dependent Stokes shifts of fluorescent dyes containing an anthroyloxy chromophore (2-AS, 9-AS, and 16-AP) in bilayers composed of palmitoyl-oleoyl-phosphatidylcholine. The obtained data revealed a nontrivial solvation response of these dyes, which are located in the backbone region of the bilayer with a gradually increasing depth. For comparison, steady-state emission spectra in the neat solvents of various polarities and viscosities were also recorded. The results indicate that on the short picosecond time scale the AS dyes undergo complex photophysics including formation of states with a charge-transfer character. This observation is supported by ab initio calculations of the excited states of 9-methylanthroate. The slower nanosecond part of the relaxation process can be attributed to the solvation response of the dyes. A slowdown in solvent relaxation is observed upon moving toward the center of the bilayer. A mechanism similar to preferential solvation present in the mixture of a polar and nonpolar solvent is considered to explain the obtained data.

Abstract
We present here the results of molecular-dynamics simulation of solvation dynamics in supercritical CO(2) at a temperature of about 1.05T(c), where T(c) is the critical temperature, and at a series of densities ranging from 0.4 to 2.0 of the critical density rho(c). We focus on electrostatic solvation dynamics, representing the electronic excitation of the chromophore as a change in its charge distribution from a quadrupolar-symmetry ground state to a dipolar excited state. Two perturbations are considered, corresponding to different magnitudes of solute excited-state dipoles, denoted as d5 and d8. The d8 solute is more attractive, leading to a larger enhancement in CO(2) clustering upon solute electronic excitation. This has a large impact on solvation dynamics, especially at densities below rho(c). At these densities, solvation dynamics is much slower for the d8 than for the d5 solute. For both solutes, solvation dynamics becomes faster at densities above rho(c) at which solvent clustering diminishes. We show that the slowest solvation time scale is associated with solvent clustering and we relate it to solute-solvent mutual translational diffusion and the extent of change in effective local density resulting from solute electronic excitation.

Abstract
The time-dependent energy distribution of solvation dynamics is studied by molecular dynamics simulations of a Lennard-Jones mixture. We calculate the response functions of the average and the variance which correspond to the spectral peak shift and bandwidth. Our calculation shows that the variance relaxation is slower than that of the average. The result agrees qualitatively with the experimental results. Dividing the obtained response functions into subcomponents caused by each solvent, we find that the relaxation is dominated by that solvent which strongly interacts with the solute. Extracting the redistribution component from the response functions, we find that it causes the slower relaxation of the response function. Thus, we conclude that the difference of the slower relaxations between the average and variance is caused by the redistribution process.

Abstract
We present a theoretical study of solvation dynamics in supercritical fluids. Molecular dynamics simulations show a significant difference between equilibrium and nonequilibrium solvent response functions, especially pronounced at medium and low solvent densities. We propose an analytical theory for the nonequilibrium solvation function based on the generalized nonlinear Smoluchowski-Vlasov equation. The theory is shown to be in good agreement with simulation, providing an accurate description of the nonequilibrium time-dependent solvent density profile around the solute over a wide range of supercritical solvent densities. The nonequilibrium solvent response function is shown to reflect gradual solvent clustering around the excited solute.

Abstract
A theoretical model is proposed to describe the influence of the concentration of a polar solvent and the temperature of a solution on the electronic spectra of a polar solute in a binary solvent mixture. It is shown that the interaction between molecules of the polar solvent in the first solvation shell makes the significant contribution to the formation of absorption and fluorescence bands of the solute. An experimental study of solvatochromic and thermochromic shifts of steady-state fluorescence spectra of 3-amino-N-methylphthalimide in decalin--propanol mixture for different values of propanol mole fraction is carried out. Good qualitative agreement between the experimental data and calculation results is observed.
