The compound N-cyclohexyl-2-pyrrolidone contains a substantial apolar region as well as a peptide bond-like moiety. This solvent, therefore, provides a useful model for protein interiors. Under certain conditions of temperature and salt concentration, cyclohexylpyrrolidone forms a two-phase system with water.
