Our earlier study indicated that [P₄₄₄₄]CF₃COO salt in binary aqueous solution was found an extremely strong hydrophobe. Here, we examine its hydrophobicity by the 1-propanol probing methodology we have developed earlier. The results indicated contrary to our expectation the salt was in fact the most significant amphiphile with a strong hydrophobic and an equally strong hydrophilic contributions; indeed the strongest ones we have encountered. We discuss a possible interpretation why and how such surprising results came about.

1-丙醇探测法表征水中的[P ₄₄₄₄ ] CF ₃ COO

我们较早的研究表明，在二元水溶液中发现[P ₄₄₄₄ ] CF ₃ COO盐具有极强的疏水性。在这里，我们通过之前开发的1-丙醇探测方法检查了其疏水性。结果表明，与我们的预期相反，该盐实际上是最重要的两亲物，具有很强的疏水性和同样强的亲水性。确实是我们遇到的最强者。我们讨论了可能的解释，为什么以及如此惊人的结果是如何产生的。
