چکیده

A presença de moléculas de solvente na vizinhança de um soluto afeta uma variedade de processos em química e biologia, e por isso é interessante obter uma descrição física de como funciona a solvatação. Embora existam muitas ferramentas espectroscópicas estruturalmente sensíveis para a investigação do papel de moléculas de solvente em processos químicos, a medida em tempo real da dinâmica de solvatação somente tornou-se possível após o desenvolvimento de espectroscopias a laser pulsado com resolução temporal de femtossegundos. Esta revisão descreve aplicações da espectroscopia ultra-rápida ao estudo da dinâmica de solvatação. A nível de terceira ordem, discutimos a dinâmica de solvatação com técnicas ressonantes e não-ressonantes, com um foco no estudo de líquidos simples e complexos. Espectroscopias Raman de quinta ordem também são apresentadas, sendo que o enfoque dá-se no novo entendimento que estas técnicas fornecem com relação ao papel do solvente em reações químicas e à natureza anarmônica do estado líquido.

Solvation dynamics in imidazolium and phosphonium ionic liquids: Effects of solute motion

Experimental and simulation results of solvation dynamics in ionic liquids have so far been explained in terms of translational motion of the ions constituting the ionic liquids under investigation. A recent theoretical study [Kashyap & Biswas, J Phys Chem B, 114 (2010) 254] has indicated that while translational motion of the constituent ions is indeed responsible for Stokes’ shift dynamics of...

5 Water solvation dynamics in the bulk and in the hydration layer of proteins and self-assemblies

Water solvation dynamics of polar species both in the bulk and in the hydration layers of proteins and self-organized assemblies have been discussed. Recent studies have revealed that while water solvation dynamics in the bulk is ultrafast and is mostly complete within 1 ps, this can slow down by as much as 2–3 orders of magnitude in the hydration layers of these systems. In this Report we disc...

Electron solvation in finite systems: femtosecond dynamics of iodide. (Water)n anion clusters

Electron solvation dynamics in photoexcited anion clusters of I-(D2O)n=4-6 and I-(H2O)4-6 were probed by using femtosecond photoelectron spectroscopy (FPES). An ultrafast pump pulse excited the anion to the cluster analog of the charge-transfer-to-solvent state seen for I- in aqueous solution. Evolution of this state was monitored by time-resolved photoelectron spectroscopy using an ultrafast p...
