Computational Calculation of Dissolved Organic Matter Absorption Spectra.

The absorption spectrum of dissolved organic matter (DOM) is a topic of interest to environmental scientists and engineers as it can be used to assess both the concentration and physicochemical properties of DOM. In this study, the UV-vis spectra for DOM model compounds were calculated using time-dependent density functional theory. Summing these individual spectra, it was possible to re-create the observed exponential shape of the DOM absorption spectra. Additionally, by predicting the effects of sodium borohydride reduction on the model compounds and then calculating the UV-vis absorbance spectra of the reduced compounds, it was also possible to correctly predict the effects of borohydride reduction on DOM absorbance spectra with a relatively larger decrease in absorbance at longer wavelengths. The contribution of charge-transfer (CT) interactions to DOM absorption was also evaluated, and the calculations showed that intra-molecular CT interactions could take place, while inter-molecular CT interactions were proposed to be less likely to contribute.
