Abstract
The rate of hydrolysis for triflusal was measured at varying concentrations of NaOH at four different temperatures (i.e. 25, 35, 45 and 55°C). The micelles of cetyltrimethylammonium bromide (CTABr), cetyltrimethylammonium chloride (CTACl), cetyltrimethylammonium hydroxide (CTAOH) and dodecyltrimethyl-ammonium bromide (DTABr) had catalytic effect on the rate of hydrolysis. CTABr, CTACl and DTABr gave maxima like curve for the rate–[surfactant] plot while CTAOH gave plateau like curve. The anionic sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS) did not influence the rate of alkaline hydrolysis of triflusal. The non-ionic Brij-35 inhibited the rate of the hydrolytic reaction. The catalytic effect by cationic micelles was treated by applying the pseudophase ion exchange model while the inhibitive effect by non-ionic micelles has been described by using the Poisson–Boltzmann pseudophase model. The variation in kψ with the change in [surfactant] was used to determined various kinetic parameters e.g., binding constant (Ks), and micellar rate constant (km). The addition of electrolytes decreased the reaction rate in CTABr and CTAOH micelles.
