Monolayers of varying stability are formed by a series of alcohols, carboxylic acids, and other derivatives containing an anthracene nucleus. Surface pressure-area curves have been obtained for the more stable films. The limiting areas and other properties of the films are discussed with reference to the molecular configurations of the compounds.

Monolayers of a lipophilic C 60-derivative (FPTL) mixed in dipalmitoyl-phosphatidyl-choline (DPPC) have been studied by the Langmuir film balance technique and Brewster angle microscopy. Previous X-ray scattering studies showed that the FPTL molecules intercalated into the DPPC monolayers and modified the bending and compression modulus of the host DPPC membranes. Combined study of surface pressure–area isotherms and Brewster angle microscopy measurements clearly established that the liquid-condensed domain structures are strongly influenced by an addition of the fullerene bearing lipid molecules, where it caused smaller liquid-condensed domain structures.
