It is well established that, in many cases, rates and pathways of all kinds of chemical
reactions can be altered by performing the reactions in micellar media instead of pure bulk …

The interactions of neutral molecules with ionic micelles are analyzed. The cell and mass
action models are presented in order to provide a semi-quantitative description of the …

Publisher Summary This chapter discusses thermal reactions in aqueous colloidal systems.
It aims is to analyze the reactions from a mechanistic point of view, and therefore discussion …

The fractionof micellar surface neutralized is calculated from kinetic results considering
independent distribution equilibria between aqueous and micellar pseudophases for …

The basic hydrolysis of 4-acetoxybenzoic acid and 2-naphtyl-acetate have been studied in
cationic micelles of N-cetyl-N, N, N-tri-methylaamonium bromide and hydroxide and the …

Iron porphyrins play several important roles in present-day living systems and probably
already existed in very early life forms. Hemin (= ferric protoporphyrin IX= ferric heme b), for …

The rate-determining deprotonation of 5-nitrobenzisoxazole (Kemp elimination) by
hydroxide is efficiently catalyzed by vesicles formed from dimethyldioctadecylammonium …

The influence of dodecyltrimethylammonium bromide (DTAB) micelles in aqueous solution
on the basic hydrolysis of a positively charged (crystal violet) and a negatively charged …

Radiolabeled compounds were used to study and compare the hydrolysis rates of long-and
short-chain alkyl betainates (alkoxycarbonyl-N, N, N-trimethylmethanaminium chlorides) …

Cationic micelles speed reactions of benzoic anhydride and bis (4-nitrophenyl) carbonate
with hydroxide and carboxylate ion. With micellized cetyltrimethylammonium bromide …
