Effects of Ethanol and Dimethyl Sulfoxide on the Molecular Organization of H<sub>2</sub>O as Probed by 1-Propanol
Bibliographic record
Abstract
We characterized the effects of ethanol (ET) and dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) on H(2)O within a limited H(2)O-rich region by the 1-propanol (1P)-probing methodology developed by us earlier. The results are displayed on a two-dimensional map with twin coordinates: one pertaining to hydrophobicity and the other to hydrophilicity. The locus of ET on this map was at a point in between methanol (ME) and 2-propanol (2P) as expected from our earlier findings by thermodynamic studies. That for DMSO, however, was surprisingly more hydrophilic than ME. Similar to N-methyl groups discussed recently (J. Phys. Chem. B 2011, 115, 2995), it was argued that the methyl groups attached to the S atom are made susceptible for direct hydrogen bonding to the surrounding H(2)O molecules due possibly to the electronegativity of the S atom. In view of these findings, we suggest caution to be exercised for the conventional general trend of taking any methyl groups to be "hydrophobic."

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
