General description

Micrometer-sized oil droplet of 4-octylaniline containing 5 mol% of an amphiphilic catalyst exhibits a self-propelled motion, producing tiny oil droplets. Kinetics of proton transfer facilitated by 4-octylaniline across the water/1,2-dichloroethane interface has been investigated by cyclic voltammetry and ac impedance.

Application

4-Octylaniline has been used as an extractant during the extraction of microgram level concentrations of ruthenium(IV) from halide medium. It has also been used in the synthesis of selective benzimidazole based analogs of sphingosine-1-phosphate.

Fluorescent microscopic imaging with the help of small-molecule probes (chemoprobes) is one of the most feasible approaches for noninvasive sensing of intracellular molecules. However, the "always on" property of current chemoprobes failed to achieve time-resolved monitoring. Here, we report the
