Cross-sectional structures of a molecular monolayer nanotube explored with SAXS: evidence for the parallel orientation of the headgroups in asymmetric bolaamphiphiles

We investigated the cross-sectional structure of a molecular monolayer nanotube self-assembled from asymmetric bolaamphiphiles having two different hydrophilic headgroups. Small-angle X-ray scattering measurements clarified that the glucose and amino headgroups form the exterior and interior surface...

Description
Summary:We investigated the cross-sectional structure of a molecular monolayer nanotube self-assembled from asymmetric bolaamphiphiles having two different hydrophilic headgroups. Small-angle X-ray scattering measurements clarified that the glucose and amino headgroups form the exterior and interior surfaces of the nanotube, respectively.
