Cover Story: Solvatochromism provides simple and efficient methods for investigating the intermolecular interactions in solutions. Thus, it was utilized to obtain new information on the behavior of Triton X-100, a well-known and widely applied non-ionic surfactant, in binary mixtures with water and several alcohols. The contribution of each type of intermolecular interaction (both specific and non-specific) to the total shift of the solute’s electronic absorption band was estimated. Also, the composition of the solute molecule’s cybotactic region was estimated, proving that Triton X-100 was the active solvent (interacting most strongly with the solute’s molecules) in all the investigated binary mixtures. The mole fraction of the 1:1 complex formed by the molecules of solvents was of significance to the cybotactic region of the solute molecules. View this paper
