Abstract

In this article, the effects of different micelles and Schiff base ligands on the hydrolytic kinetics of p-nitrophenyl picolinate (PNPP) were evaluated. The results reveal that the biggest rate enhancement for PNPP hydrolysis was given in Gemini 16-6-16 micellar solution relative to other four reaction media, that is, cetyltrimethylammonium bromide (CTAB), n-lauroylsarcosine sodium (LSS), polyoxyethylene (23) lauryl ether (Brij35) and pure buffer. Moreover, the hydrolytic rates of PNPP in other four media decreased in the order LSS > CTAB > Buffer > Brij35. The structural effects of Mn(III) catalysts clearly testify that a relatively open active site facilitates the formation of reactive substrate-catalyst complex.
