The buried solid/liquid interface between hydrophilic fused silica and binary solvent mixtures of acetonitrile (MeCN) and methanol (MeOH) was studied with vibrational sum-frequency generation (vSFG) spectroscopy. Our data showed that at high relative concentrations of methanol, the Fermi resonance peak in the vSFG spectrum is greatly suppressed, and it progressively gains intensity as methanol is diluted with perdeuterated acetonitrile. This phenomenon is quantified by the Fermi resonance coupling coefficient,W, extracted using a two-level model, as well as the experimental intensity ratio,R, of the methyl Fermi resonance band to that of the symmetric stretch. At a 1.0 MeOH mole fraction,WandRvalues were 10 ± 10 cm–1and 0.01 ± 0.02, respectively, whereas at a 0.1 mole fraction,WandRincreased to 46 ± 4 cm–1and 0.43 ± 0.16, respectively. This indicates that solvation with acetonitrile effectively tunes the Fermi coupling of methanol vibrations at the silica/liquid interface.
