摘要
The solvatochromic shift of the first n-pi* and pi-pi* transitions of s-trans acrolein molecule in water is systematically investigated. Monte Carlo simulations are made to generate solute-solvent configurations used in CIS(D)/aug-cc-pVXZ (X = 2, 3, 4, 5, 6) calculations. Analysis of the convergence of the results with the cardinal number and the number of explicit solvent molecules is made. Our results elucidate the solvatochromic shift of the n-pi* transition dominated by electrostatic interaction and the pi-pi* transition requiring non-electrostatic interaction.
