Because of its unique properties, water drives many natural and biological processes. While
a detailed understanding of its precise role is still being unravelled, it is clear that the …

2. BACKGROUND 2.1. Aqueous Reverse Micelles The unique properties of water including
its polarity and highly structured hydrogen bond network have led to the widespread use of …

Amphiphiles, either synthetic or natural, are structurally simple molecules with the
unprecedented capacity to self-assemble into complex, hierarchical geometries in …

Porous coordination polymers, in particular flexible porous coordination polymer networks
that change their network structure on guest adsorption, have enormous potential in …

Aqueous reverse micelles, which are surfactant aggregates in nonpolar solvents that
enclose packets of aqueous solution, have been widely studied experimentally and …

Reverse micelles, or water-in-oil microemulsions, incorporate a variety of solutes. The
distribution of the solute between the surrounding solvent and the micelles can be described …

The mobility of water in water/Aerosol OT (AOT)/isooctane reverse micelles has been
investigated via polar solvation dynamics measurements using ultrafast, time-resolved …

The solvation dynamics of water in lecithin/cyclohexane reverse micelles have been
determined via ultrafast time-resolved fluorescence studies. At hydration levels w 0≤ 4.8 …

Three series of 4-anilino-1 H-pyrazolo [3, 4-b] pyridine-5-carboxylic esters were synthesized
as part of a program to study potential anti-Leishmania drugs. These compounds were …

We have measured the dynamics of water solvation in two different reverse micellar
environments with low water content, w 0= 1.7. In the water/Aerosol OT (AOT)/isooctane …
