1. A detergent composition comprising from about 0.1% to about 99% by weight of the composition of a first surfactant, wherein said first surfactant consists essentially of a mixture of surfactant isomers of Formula I and surfactants of Formula II:

OG Complex Work Unit Chemistry
wherein from about 90% to about 100% by weight of the first surfactant are isomers having m+n=11; wherein between about 25% to about 50% of the mixture of surfactant isomers of Formula I have n=0; wherein from about 0.001% to about 25% by weight of the first surfactant are surfactants of Formula II; wherein X is a hydrophilic moiety, wherein the first surfactant does not contain isomers of Formula I with n equal to or greater than 6.
