title: Click-chemistry as a mix-and-match kit for amphiphile synthesis.
abstract: A small library of amphiphilic compounds was synthesized in an array using the Huisgen 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition of terminal alkynes with azides (CuAAC or click reaction). The self-assembling properties of these compounds were evaluated by polarizing microscopy and synchrotron small-angle X-ray scattering analysis.
