We have used second harmonic generation to directly observe chemical changes in a lipid monolayer. We observed that pK, of phexadecyl aniline at the air/water interface is 3.6& 0.2 versus 5.3 fO.l in the bulk. This fiftyfold increase in acidity is due to the higher free energy of a charged species a
Monolayers of two nitroaniline-terminated amphiphilic compounds that differ from each other only by a methylene group in the hydrocarbon chain arestudied at the air-water interface by optical second harmonic generation and ellipsometry. The nitroanilino groups exhibit significantly different orderin
