Recently, a new method [P. Partovi-Azar and D. Sebastiani, J. Chem. Phys. 152, 064101 (2020)] was proposed to increase the efficiency of proton transfer energy calculations in density functional theory by using the T1 state with additional optimized effective potentials instead of calculations at S1. In this work, we focus on proton transfer from six prototypical photoacids to neighboring water molecules and show that the reference proton dissociation curves obtained at S1 states using time-dependent density functional theory can be reproduced with a reasonable accuracy by performing T1 calculations at density functional theory level with only one additional effective potential for the acidic hydrogens. We also find that the extra effective potentials for the acidic hydrogens neither change the nature of the T1 state nor the structural properties of solvent molecules upon transfer from the acids. The presented method is not only beneficial for theoretical studies on excited state proton transfer, but we believe that it would also be useful for studying other excited state photochemical reactions.

The effect of selective dietary sodium and (or) chloride loading on blood pressure and renal blood flow (RBF) in the rat angiotensin II (AII) model of hypertension was determined. AII (200 ng/min) or saline was infused intraperitoneally. Diets were provided with either high or low concentrations of sodium, chloride or both ions for 22 days. The blood pressure of saline-treated animals was not increased by the high sodium chloride diet. Animals on a high sodium, high chloride diet had a significantly greater increase of blood pressure at 8, 15, 18, and 22 days of AII infusion compared with AII-treated animals on a low sodium, low chloride diet (p < 0.05). Selective dietary loading of either high sodium or chloride in AII-treated rats produced no greater elevation of blood pressure than AII with the low sodium, low chloride diet. Selective high dietary chloride was associated with a lower RBF in AII- and vehicle-treated rats compared with low dietary chloride. The chloride effect on RBF was greater in AII-treated animals. In conclusion, both sodium and chloride are necessary to produce the maximum increase of blood pressure in AII animals. AII enhances the decreased RBF induced by dietary chloride.Key words: angiotensin II, sodium chloride, blood pressure.
