Abstract
⺠A hybrid surfactant 8F-B2ES having oxyethylene units in one of the tails was synthesized. ⺠8F-B2ES forms vesicles, which became distorted at temperatures below 40 °C. ⺠Hydrohpilicity of the 8F-B2ES bilayers increased with decreasing temperature. ⺠These unique properties suggest the possibility to generate oxyethylene-based quasi ion channels.
