Abstract
Homopolymers and random copolymers derived from 3-vinylpyridium salts form compact coils in aqueous solutions. The resulting hydrophobic mic rodomains were characterized by both the hypsochromic shift of the wav elength emission band and the fluorescence quantum yield increase of a molecular rotor used as a fluorescence probe.
