Miscibility Studies on Amphiphilic Calix[4]arene–Cholesterol mixed Films

Abstract

The miscibility of three amphiphilic calix[4]arenes, para-dodecanoylcalix[4]arene, 25,27-bis-diethoxyphosphorytetradodecanoyl-calix-[4]-arene and 25,27-bis-dihydroxyphosphoryloxytetradodecanoyl-calix[4]arene in mixed monolayers, with cholesterol has been studied by Langmuir film method and Brewster angle microscopy (BAM).
