A star is born in the form of a polybutadiene–poly(ethylene oxide) amphiphile 1. The molecule exhibits remarkable self-assembly properties: it forms regular and reverse micelles in water and hexane, respectively. Comparison of 1 with a V-shaped precursor revealed a profound influence of molecular architecture on the self-assembly behavior of the amphiphiles.
