✦ Synopsis
Our method for estimating solvent effects on electronic spectra in media with strong solute-solvent interactions is applied here to calculate the absorption and fluorescence solvatochromatic shifts of dilute triazines in water. First, the ab initio CASSCF method is used to estimate the gas-phase electronic excitation properties and state charge distributions; second, Monte Carlo simulations are performed to elucidate liquid structures around the ground and excited state solute; finally, the solvent shift is evaluated based on the gas-phase charge distributions and the explicit solvent structures. For the dilute triazine solutions, simulations predict one linear (different) hydrogen bond attached to each nitrogen atom. Upon the first (1)(n, pi*)electronic excitation one hydrogen bond is completely broken. For the absorption and fluorescence spectra, our calculations demonstrated that the specific solvent-solute interaction, in any electronic state, plays a critical role in the determination of solvent shifts.
