In order to study the structural and dynamical aspects of the solubilization process of pentanol within a sodium octanoate micelle a molecular dynamics simulation is presented. In this initial study we discuss the results and detailed insights into the interactions between sodium octanoate, pentanol, and water. The total micellar radius and the hydrophobic core radius were determined. The calculated values are in fairly good agreement with experimental results. In contrast to pure sodium octanoate micelles the aggregate with dissolved pentanol attained a more spherical shape related to the time interval of the simulation. It is clear that the results of a molecular dynamics computer simulation are always limited by its total length and the total time used for data analysis. Nevertheless, from our simulation study it turned out that a part of the pentanol hydroxyl groups were located within the micellar core and some alcohol molecules were also observed at the surface region of the micelle. The corresponding partition coefficient was calculated and agreed well with the experiment. The evaluated radial distribution functions of the sodium ions, the octanoate oxygens, and the hydroxyl hydrogens reveal details of the interface region of the micelle and the bulk phase. Additionally, it was possible to calculate the trans-to-gauche ratios of the alkyl chains and to compare these results with the simulation of a pure octanoate micelle.
