Abstract

A change in the reactivity of ethyl p-nitrophenyl chloromethylphosphonate in the sodium bis(2-ethylhexyl)sulfosuccinate-n-nonane-water system around the percolation threshold was found. Study of location sites of the reactants by NMR self-diffusion and optical spectroscopy and modeling of the kinetic data in terms of the pseudophase approach demonstrated that below the percolation threshold, the reaction occurs in the surface layer. The observed rate constant for substrate hydrolysis in a microemulsion below the percolation threshold is described by the Arrhenius equation, like that in aqueous solutions. Above the percolation threshold, the slope of the Arrhenius plot sharply changes, which is apparently due to a change in the reactant location pattern and, hence, the microscopic properties of the medium in the region of their solubilization.
