Xc. Zeng et al., THE EFFECT OF CATIONIC, ANIONIC AND NONIO NIC SURFACTANT MICELLES ON THE ALKALINE-HYDROLYSIS OF ESTERS, Gaodeng xuexiao huaxue xuebao, 16(6), 1995, pp. 937-942
The alkaline hydrolysis of aromatic and normal aliphatic acid eaters h
as been studied at 25 degrees C in the micellar solutions of surfactan
ts (DTAB, TTAB, CTAB, SDS, Brij-35, Triton X-100) with spectrophotomet
ry and the method of thermokinetics in this paper, k(1m) and k(2m) in
micellar pseudophase have been calculated. The ratios of k(2m) to k(2w
) or K-1m to K-1w indicate that the alkaline hydrolysis of esters are
inhibited by all researched micelles. We suppose the micropolarity of
micelles can account for the inhibition of micelles.
