title: pH influenced molecular switching with micelle bound cavitands.
abstract: A series of resorcinarene host-amphiphilic guest complexes have been developed where guest orientation in the host is drastically influenced by pH. Guests appended with a trimethylammonium and a tert-butyl group switch orientation by 180° in response to a buildup of negative charge in the cavitand host.
