Ion‐Transfer Reactions at the Nanoscopic Water/<i>n</i>‐Octanol Interface

Abstract

Sharp practice: A water/n-octanol interface can be formed at the tip of a very short and sharp nanopipette, and can be polarized externally (see picture). This interface has been used to investigate various ion-transfer processes and evaluate partition coefficients for ionizable species.
