Vandaele E, Mališ M, Luber S. The Role of Aqueous Solvation on the Intersystem Crossing of Nitrophenols. J Chem Theory Comput 2024; 20:3258-3272.

Abstract
The photochemistry of nitrophenols is a source of smog as nitrous acid is formed from their photolysis. Nevertheless, computational studies of the photochemistry of these widespread toxic molecules are scarce. In this work, the initial photodeactivation of ortho-nitrophenol and para-nitrophenol is modeled, both in gas phase and in aqueous solution to simulate atmospheric and aerosol environments. A large number of excited states, six for ortho-nitrophenol and 11 for para-nitrophenol, have been included and were all populated during the decay. Moreover, periodic time-dependent density functional theory (TDDFT) is used for both the explicitly included solvent and the solute. A comparison to periodic QM/MM (TDDFT/MM), with electrostatic embedding, is made, showing notable differences between the decays of solvated nitrophenols simulated with QM/MM and full (TD)DFT. A reduced intersystem crossing in aqueous solution could be observed thanks to the surface hopping approach using explicit, periodic TDDFT solvation including spin-orbit couplings.

Abstract
Fluorescence array technologies have attracted great interest in the sensing field because of their high sensitivity, low cost, and capability of multitarget detection. However, traditional array sensing relies on multiple independent sensors and thus often requires time-consuming and laborious measurement processes. Herein, we introduce a novel fluorescence array strategy of the array-on-a-metal-organic framework (MOF), which integrates multiple array elements into a single MOF matrix to achieve facile sensing and discrimination of multiple target analytes. As a proof-of-concept system, we constructed a luminescent MOF containing three different emitting channels, including a lanthanide ion (europium/Eu3+, red emission), a fluorescent dye (7-hydroxycoumarin-4-acetic acid/HCAA, blue emission), and the MOF itself (UiO-66-type MOF, blue-violet emission). Five structurally similar nitroaromatic compounds (NACs) were chosen as the targets. All three channels of the array-on-a-MOF displayed rapid and stable fluorescence quenching responses to NACs (response equilibrium achieved within 30 s). Different responses were generated for each channel against each NAC due to the various quenching mechanisms, including photoinduced electron transfer, energy competition, and the inner filter effect. Using linear discriminant analysis, the array-on-a-MOF successfully distinguished the five NACs and their mixtures at varying concentrations and demonstrated good sensitivity to quantify individual NACs (detect limit below the advisory concentration in drinking water). Moreover, the array also showed feasibility in the sensing and discrimination of multiple NACs in real water samples. The proposed "array-on-a-MOF" strategy simplifies multitarget discrimination procedures and holds great promise for various sensing applications.

Abstract
The polarizable density embedding model is combined with the multiconfigurational self-consistent field and MC-srDFT electronic structure methods to calculate solvatochromic shifts of the n-π* absorption of acrolein and the π-π* absorption of the para-nitrophenolate anion in aqueous solution. Differences between linear-response (LR) and state-specific (SS) solvent shifts are analyzed by assessing the contributions of different terms in the solvent potential. This comparison shows that the differences are not only due to the intrinsically different response of LR and SS excitation energies to the polarizability of the environment but also due to a different response to the static part of the environment potential. These observations show that even in nonpolarizable environments, LR and SS calculations based on SCF (orbital optimization) methods do not necessarily agree on the spectral shift. The difference can be as large as, or even dominate, the difference due to dynamical polarization.

Abstract
Although Surface Enhanced Raman Spectroscopy (SERS) is a widespread technique with applications in several fields, the SERS effect is still not thoroughly understood due to the challenge in describing how the interaction between the analyte and the metallic surface contributes to the Raman signal enhancement. One approach to distinguish the charge transfer contribution from the metal to the molecule is the comparison of the coordination complex resonance Raman spectral features with the SERS spectra of the surface complex excited at different wavelengths. Herein, we investigated the molecule 5-nitroisatin, Nisa, its complex with a silver cation, Ag(Nisa), its anionic form, Nisa-, and the adsorbed species over Ag colloid, Nisa/AgNP, by resonance Raman and SERS, respectively. The data show that the resonance Raman spectrum of the coordination complex Ag(Nisa) is comparable to the SERS spectrum obtained out of resonance condition. However, when the SERS spectra of Nisa/AgNP at resonance condition is obtained, quite distinct chromophores are observed. The SERS enhancement profile suggests a charge transfer from the metal to molecule in the green region of the visible spectrum and evidences the higher complexity of the electronic transitions that take place within the surface complex. To support the experimental data, DFT and TDDFT calculations were performed for Nisa, Ag(Nisa), Nisa- and Nisa@Ag20 cluster.

Abstract
A theoretical study of the solvatochromic shifts of para-nitrophenol ( pNP) and para-nitrophenolate anion ( pNP-) in aqueous solution is presented using a QM/MM methodology with molecular dynamics simulation. The optimized structures in aqueous solution are obtained using both the polarizable continuum and the free-energy gradient methods. For pNP, the calculated redshifts at the CASPT2 (12,10) level are, respectively, 0.71 and 0.94 eV, in good agreement with the experimental ones (0.80-0.83 eV), whereas for pNP-, they are small. The difference between the solvatochromic shifts of pNP and pNP- is calculated as 0.71 eV in good agreement with the experimental one (0.79-0.81 eV). Finally, these shifts are understood in terms of the solvent effect on the solute structure, accurately calculated by the present theoretical treatment.

Abstract
In this study, a series of silyl-containing ethoxycarbonates and ethoxycarbamates on electron poor anilines and phenols were synthesized and their kinetics of disassembly determined in real-time upon exposure to fluoride ion sources at room temperature. The results provide a greater understanding of stability and kinetics for silyl-containing protecting groups that eliminate volatile molecules upon removal, which will allow for simplification of orthogonal protection in complex organic molecules. Rate constants of disassembly for synthesized silyl-containing ethoxycarbonyls were significantly faster than TEOC, a common protecting group.![]()

Abstract
Radiolysis in aqueous nitrate and acetic acid solutions and nitrate/nitric acid and phenol was studied. The radiolysis of these solutes occurs with •NO2 radical, which is the active nitrating agent. Accumulation of nitromethane and nitrite was determined during γ-irradiation of aqueous solutions containing acetic and nitrate solutions. Irradiation of aqueous phenol–nitrate/nitric acid solutions results in the formation of 2- and 4-nitrophenols.
