2 S2 1. Generalities Reagents and solvents were purchased from Acros Organics (Pittsburgh, PA), Fisher Scientific (Pittsburgh, PA), Sigma-Aldrich (St. Louis, MO), and Cambridge Isotope Laboratories, Inc. (Tewksbury, MA). Quat 1 was characterized by nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy (NMR) using a Bruker 500 MHz spectrometer (Billerica, MA). 2. Preparation of benzyldimethyloctylammonium bromide (Quat 1) 1, 2 N, N-dimethylbenzylamine (15 ml, 14 g, 0.10 mol) and acetonitrile (0.10 L) were heated to reflux. Bromooctane (17 ml, 19 g, 0.10 mol) was added slowly, and the reaction was kept at reflux for 24 h. The solvent was then removed by rotary evaporation. The obtained product was recrystallized using deionized water to afford the title compound as colorless crystals (21 g, 63%). 1 H NMR (CDCl 3 ): δ = 7.65 (Ph, m, 2H), 7.42 (Ph, m, 3H, J = 7.1 Hz), 5.09 (Ph-CH 2, s, 2H), 3.54 (NCH 2, t, 2H, J = 8.2 Hz), 3.29 (N-CH 3, s, 6H), 1.77 (CH 2, s, 2H), 1.29 (CH 2, d, 14H, J = 14 Hz), 0.84 (C-CH 3 ), t, 3H, J = 6.6 Hz).

3 S3 3. Experimental Details Sample preparation: The eicosanoic acid (EA; >99% purity) monolayer on water method was used for aligning the beams at the air-liquid interface as a reference sample. 0.5 mm, 8 mm, and 20 mm Quat 1 solutions were prepared in deionized H 2 O (purified by Milli-Q plus at 18 MΩ) or in D 2 O, and sonicated for 15 minutes. The samples were placed in a glass petri dish and allowed to equilibrate for 20 minutes under N 2 atmosphere. Spectroscopic analysis was carried out under positive N 2 pressure. Instrumentation: The femtosecond sum frequency generation spectroscopy was attained using Solstice laser (Spectra-Physics) generating 100 fs pulses at 795 nm. 50% of the 795 nm beam was then passed through an automated optical parametric amplification system and the difference frequency crystal to generate mid-infrared beam ranging from 4000 cm -1 to 1000 cm -1.The other half was sent towards a Fabry Pérot Etalon (SLS Optics) to produce a time-asymmetric picosecond visible pulse. The beams are focused to the sample stage with the IR beam aligned at an angle of 60 o and the visible (795 nm) beam at an angle of 50 o from the surface normal. When the incident IR beam is centered at 2900 cm -1, the broadband SFG beam is generated at an angle of 52 from the surface normal. The SFG signal is then collected with lenses, polarizer, spectrograph, and a detector. The energies of the incident beams on the sample stage are ~7µJ (IR) and ~25 µj (795 nm), respectively. SFG Experiment: All data were collected with three trials and a background. Acquisition time of each spectrum is 9 minutes (180 accumulations: 3 s acquisition time per accumulation). The spectra of Quat 1 in H 2 O were acquired at different IR centers positioned from 2800 cm -1 to 3700 cm -1. Quat 1 in D 2 O was characterized from 2400 cm -1 to 3000 cm -1 ; in a 1:1 mixture of H 2 O and D 2 O, Quat 1 was characterized from 2400 cm -1 to 3700 cm -1 every 100 cm -1.
