They may sound the same, but they are different things.

Phytotoxicity is a toxic effect by a compound on plant growth. Such damage may be caused by a wide variety of compounds, including trace metals, salinity, pesticides, phytotoxins or allelochemicals.
Phytotoxicity - Wikipedia

pho·to·syn·the·sis
ˌfōdōˈsinTHəsəs/
noun
  1. the process by which green plants and some other organisms use sunlight to synthesize foods from carbon dioxide and water. Photosynthesis in plants generally involves the green pigment chlorophyll and generates oxygen as a byproduct.

Plants do most of their drinking in the daytime, so there's occasional quirks about watering before dark.
Foliar has nothing to do with watering, only feeding. If you fed 12 hours earlier, I wouldn't foliar feed anything strong, but you can. That's when the burn risk is highest.
I go by "water in the morning, spray in the evening"

There is also an old rule of thumb about spraying. Don't do it if the Humidity and Temp added together is more than 170. Here is some pretty good info on the subject.
