Abstract
Controlled secondary self-assembly of amphiphilic molecules in solution has theoretical and practical significance in amphiphilic molecular applications. In their Full Paper on page 5000 ff., X.-D. Fan, W. Tian, and co-workers describe the design of an amphiphilic β-cyclodextrin dimer, which can self-assemble into spherical micelles in aqueous solution without ultrasonication. While the primary micelles were dissociated under the action of ultrasonication; the secondary self-assemblies possessing branched morphology could be formed by further increasing the ultrasonication time.
