Abstract
A micellar catalyzed oxidation of ethanol, propanol and n-butanol by N-bromobenzamide (NBB) in acidic medium has been studied using sodium dodecyl sulfate. The cause of autocatalysis has been attributed to Br - ions, which was further substantiated by the removal of first stage on initial addition of potassium bromide. The pre-micellar catalysis by sodium dodecyl sulfate has been rationalized in the light of positive cooperativity model. The positive cooperativity indices for all the three substrates and thermodynamic parameters have been computed. The variation of solvent composition and addition of benzamide have also been studied. Most plausible mechanisms have been envisaged.
