Micellization of 4-Hydroxynaphthalimides: The Solvent-induced Aggregation and the Detection of Low-level Water in THF
A series of 4-hydroxy-1,8-naphthalimides were designed and synthesized for fabrication of amphiphilic dyes and aliphatit-pi-chromophore-hydroxy (A-pi-H) structures. Their aggregation capabilities were examined in water/THF and aggregation induced formation of micelle structures was confirmed and the structures were characterized. Moreover, the micelles were used as sensors for detection of trace-level water in THF.
