✦ Synopsis
Proton sponge (bis( 1,8-dimethylamino)naphthalene) is solubihzed in its neutral form in heptane and in its protonated form in the aqueous core of reverse micelles of AOT (sodium bis( 2-ethylhexyl)sulfosuccinate). Partition between the heptane phase and the water pools has been quantitatively analyzed by spectrophotometry at various concentrations of proton sponge and as a function of water content of the micelles. The results show that the pseudophase model is valid and reveals a strong solubiliiation effect due to the presence of surfactant. In addition, proton sponge permits determination "in situ" of the acidity in the water pool.

## Abstract The photophysical property of the tricarbocyanine dye IR144 has been extensively studied in non‐aqueous solvents. However, as a potential near‐infrared biomedical imaging probe, the photophysical property of IR144 in water is still little known. So, the aggregation behaviors of IR144 in
The fluorescence emission properties of 7-azaindole (7AI) are examined in aerosol-OT (AOT) reverse micelles in n-heptane. The emission dramatically changes from a typical dual fluorescence (A,,,, x 326, 480 nm) behavior in n-heptane, to a single fluorescence band (&,,,, z 350 nm) with enhanced yield
