Quadrupole splittings in the 2H NMR spectrum from CeDe and C6Dr2 solubilized in aqueous solutions of hexadecyltrimethylammonium bromide (CTAB) have been observed in the hexagonal liquid crystalline phase (E) as well as in the concentrated micellar phase (LI). The order parameter that is obtained for solubilized CeD6 is more than two orders of magnitude greater than previously reported from measurements of linear dichroism spectra. Various possibilities for the nature of the ioiubilization sites are discussed.
