Abstract The dynamic behavior of sodium octanoate (NaO), especially that of the polar headgroups of NaO, in1-hexanol in the presence of cosolubilized water was studied by Na-NMR and13C-NMR at 24 and 25 MHz. Na-NMR data have indicated that the mobility of the sodium ions of NaO shows the lowest value at 1.2 M of NaO at a given water content, which is related to the maximum amount of water cosolubilized into the system and the change in the structure of polar headgroups of NaO.13C-NMR data have shown that the mobility of methylene carbons, No. 5 and 6 of NaO, is higher than that of methylene carbons, No. 4 and 7, and that water molecules entered among the polar headgroups of NaO affect the mobility of methylene carbons of NaO, No. 5 and 6. The hydroxyl groups of1-hexanol were found to be contact with water molecules entered among the polar headgroups of NaO, and to fill the space among the hydrocarbon chains of NaO. By assuming spherical geometry the size of water pools and the average aggregation number were calculated, and the results were discussed on the basis of13C-NMR and Na-NMR data.
