26. -1) from the C=O moiety can sometimes be observed in amide-containing amphiphiles and used to infer the type of H-bonding environment and aggregation state. See: Shimizu, S.; El Seoud, O. A. Langmuir 2003, 19, 238. Unfortunately, the amide I band cannot be discerned in the IR spectra of our polymerizable amphiphiles because of an overlapping acrylate C=C stretching band in the same region.
27. II phase. This derivative, which is structurally analogous to 1 but with an ester in place of the amide linkage, does not exhibit any LLC behavior in neat form or with added DMF or water.
