초록
Langmuir monolayers of fatty aniline (4-Hexadecyl aniline, C16-aniline), at different pHs and concentrations of added NaCl were investigated by sum-frequency vibrational spectroscopy. The SFG spectra in the OH regions were complicated due to the present of NH modes in this region. The SFG spectra of C16-aniline at pH 2 to 6 and constant ionic strength of 10mM (where the phase of dc-induced signal was suppressed to a few degrees) were fitted with multi-peak Lorentzian model following theory of SFG for charged interface. By combining the mean-field theory incorporating the chemical equilibrium of the aniline headgroup, and the result of fitting, the pKa of aniline was determined to be 4.9 ± 0.4. The protonation fraction of aniline headgroup was estimated to be about less than 5% at pH6 and added NaCl concentration up to 1M. The generalized Poisson Boltzmann equation could be used to quantitatively explain observed SFG spectra in OH region for fatty aniline as low as pH of 2 without any salt addition.
