Abstract
A dimeric (gemini) surfactant containing cleavable ester groups has been synthesized and studied. The new surfactant has a low critical micelle concentration (2.7∙10–5 mol/L) and Krafft temperature (≤0°C). Alkaline hydrolysis of 4-nitrophenyl diethyl phosphonate and 4-nitrophenyl diethyl phosphate in the presence of micelles of gemini surfactant I proceeds 30-144 times more rapidly than in water. Chemical cleavage of gemini surfactant I in an alkaline medium is achieved in 96 h.
