Abstract

Abstract The kinetics of alkaline hydrolysis of N-phenylbenzohydroxamic acid and its para-substituted derivatives (X–C6H4–CO–N(OH)C6H5; X = H, CH3, OCH3, NO2, F) have been investigated in the presence and absence of cationic (ethyl hexadecyl)dimethylammonium bromide) and anionic (sodium-1-dodecanesulfonate and lithium dodecyl sulfate) surfactants at 55 °C in 5% (v/v) dioxane–water medium. A catalytic effect was found with cationic surfactants and an inhibitory effect in the presence of anionic surfactants was observed. The rate-surfactant profiles can be analyzed in terms of pseudo-phase and Piszkiewicz models.
