Abstract

Polar dyes can be solubilized in apolar media-molecular nanocapsules with hydrophilic interiors have been prepared (see schematic representation) using polyglycerols with narrow polydispersity and simple esterification with fatty acids. These unimolecular micelles offer attractive potential for a variety of applications ranging from controlled drug release to the design of microreactors and catalysts.
