Although the significance of aqueous interfaces has been recognized in numerous important fields, it can be even more prominent for nanoscaled aqueous aerosols because of their large surface-to-volume ratios and prevalent existence in nature. Also, considering that organic species are often mixed with aqueous aerosols in nature, a fundamental understanding of the electronic and structural properties of organic species in aqueous nanoaerosols is essential to learn the interplay between water and organic solutes under the nanoscaled size regime. Here, we report for the first time the vacuum ultraviolet photoelectron spectroscopy of phenol and three dihydroxybenzene (DHB) isomers including catechol, resorcinol, and hydroquinone in the aqueous nanoaerosol form. By evaluating two photoelectron features of the lowest vertical ionization energies originated from the b1(π) and a2(π) orbitals for phenolic aqueous nanoaerosols, their interfacial solvation characteristics are unraveled. Phenolic species appear to reside primarily on/near the aqueous nanoaerosol interface, where they appear only partially hydrated on the aqueous interface with the hydrophilic hydroxyl group more solvated in water. An appreciable proportion of phenol is found to coexist with phenolate at/near the nanoaerosol interface even under a high bulk pH of 12.0, indicating that the nanoaerosol interface exhibits a composition distribution and pH drastically different from those of the bulk. The surface pH of phenol-containing aqueous nanoaerosols is found to be ∼2.2 ± 0.1 units more acidic than that of the bulk interior, as measured at the bulk pH of 12.0. From the photoelectron spectra of DHB aqueous nanoaerosols, the effects of numbers/arrangements of -OH groups are assessed. This study shows that the hydration extents, pH values, deprotonation status, and numbers/relative arrangements of -OH groups are crucial factors affecting the ionization energies of phenolic aqueous nanoaerosols and thus their redox-based activities. The multifaceted implications of the present study in the aerosol science, atmospheric/marine chemistry, and biological science are also addressed.
