Polyaniline is among the most intensely investigated polymers because of its exceptional properties affording its current and potential applications. The structure and energy spectra of isolated oligomers and infinite chains in different oxidation states and degrees of protonation have been discussed at length from experimental and theoretical perspectives. The reaction environment effect, however, has received less attention and, particularly, the influence of monomer excess has been completely neglected in theoretical studies. Experimental measurements show that residual aniline is always detected in emeraldine samples obtained at low pH. Upon addition of oxidant to emeraldine PANI samples, post-polymerization due to the presence of excess monomers occurs. This is an indication of the formation of aniline-PANI complexes in the reaction medium. The presence of aniline monomers should affect the PANI chain arrangement and optical/conducting characteristics. Therefore, model clusters of aniline with neutral or singly protonated emeraldine tetramers in explicit water medium and periodic boundary conditions are addressed in this paper using a Monte Carlo/AMBER96/AM1 computational protocol to simulate the absorption spectra. The monomer impact on the structure, energy characteristics, and UV/vis spectra of the polymer are discussed.
