We have designed and synthesized a clickable bridged silsesquioxane material featuring pendant alkyne chains as an aggregate of golf-ball-like nanoparticles, as evidenced by scanning electron microscopy (SEM), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), and small- and wide-angle X-ray scattering (SWAXS). Using the copper-catalyzed azide鈥揳lkyne cycloaddition reaction with a range of organic azides of variable characteristics, we transformed this parent bridged silsesquioxane into new materials with tunable hydrophilic/lipophilic balance in high conversions while preserving the original morphology. N<sub>2sub>, cyclohexane, and water sorption experiments were used to quantify the affinity of these materials toward the sorbates through the determination of their Henry鈥檚 constants. This resulted in the following hydrophilic scale: M-OH > M-PEG > M-C6 > M-Ph > M-F > M-C16, which was mostly confirmed by SWAXS measurements.
