摘要

An unprecedented tunable hydrophobic effect in self-assembly of a small cationic organic fluorophore(NI-TPy+)-based with aggregation-induced emission(AIE)property was realized in aqueous solution.The amplification of hydrophobicity was found to be significantly dependent upon the increasing aggregates of NI-TPy+,which enabled the study of the hydrophobic binding of chaotropic anions with the Hofmeister series.
