Abstract
The kinetics of nucleophilic dephosphorylation of p-nitrophenyl diphenyl phosphate by hydroxamate ions (R'(C=O)N(RO-)) have been investigated in aqueous cationic micellar media at pH 9.12 and 27 degrees C. The pseudo-first-order rate constant-surfactant profiles show micelle-assisted bimolecular reactions involving interfacial ion exchange between bulk aqueous media and micellar pseudophase. N-Substituted hydroxamate ion shows higher reactivity over the unsubstituted hydroxamate ions in cationic micellar media. The kinetic data are discussed in terms of the pseudophase ion exchange model.
