Anthocyanidins in the gas phase and under the effects of solvents such as water, ethanol, n-hexane, and methanol have been studied using DFT and TDDFT electronic structure calculations for applications as natural dyes in photocatalysis. The results include HOMO and LUMO orbitals, HOMO-LUMO gap, chemical properties, reorganization energies, and excited states. Malvidin presented the lower HOMO-LUMO gap energy. After the inclusion of solvents, HOMO-LUMO gap energy increased in all cases, presenting malvidin with n-hexane as the narrower gap energy. Conceptual DFT results showed that cyanidin, malvidin, and pelargonidin present good charge transfer properties. Cyanidin presented a lower electron reorganization energy (λe) when water is used as the solvent. TDDFT has been used for excited states calculation and absorption data show the main peaks in a wavelength between 479.1 and 536.4 nm. The UV–Vis absorption spectra were generated and the solvent effects in each case are discussed. In consequence, pigments selected in this attempt are suitable to work in the visible part of the electromagnetic spectrum and display the main peak in the green region. These pigments are found as good options for photocatalysis applications, and the best choices for dye sensitization are cyanidin, malvidin, and petunidin after including the more common anthocyanidins in the analysis.
