Abstract
The conformational changes of the aerosol-OT (AOT) molecule have been established from proton-proton coupling constant measurements of the s ulphosuccinic part of the molecule. The coupling constant values have been measured directly from the contour plots of the phase sensitive d ouble quantum COSY spectrum. It has been concluded that rotational iso merism exists in the AOT molecule, and the composition of the rotamers in the reverse micelles depends on the water content in the droplets.
