Mn. Khan et Fbh. Ahmad, Effects of organic salts on the rate of alkaline hydrolysis of phthalimidein the presence of cationic micelles, REACT KIN C, 72(2), 2001, pp. 321-329
Pseudo-first order rate constants (k(obs)) for alkaline hydrolysis of phtha
limide (PTH), obtained at constant concentration of cetyltrimethylammonium
bromide (CTABr) and 35 degreesC, vary with the concentration of organic sal
ts ([MX]) according to the relationship: k(obs) = (k(0) + theta K [MX])/(I
+ K [MX]) where theta and K are empirical parameters. The values of K at 0.
01 M CTABr are nearly 2 times larger than the corresponding K values at 0.0
2 M CTABr for sodium benzoate, disodium phthalate and disodium isophthalate
.
