Probing the behavior of confined water by proton-transfer reactions
Article Abstract:
The picosecond dynamics of a bifunctional and H-bonding molecule, 7-hydroxyquinoline (7HQ), is analyzed in a reverse micelle with increasing water content. The results have indicated two regimes of water nanopool behavior and the lower fluidity of confined water within the reverse micelle with respect to normal bulk water changes the related H-bond network dynamics and therefore are responsible for the slower proton-transfer processes.
