Abstract

Substituent effects on the reaction of H2O, OH-, and Br- with p-substituted methyl benzenesulfonates in cationic micelles of cetyl trialkylammonium ion surfactants (n-C16H33NR3X, X = OH, Br, R = Me, Et, nPr, nBu) and in water were analyzed by using the Hammett equation. Values of rho in the various media confirm that micellar interfacial regions are less polar than water and polarities decrease with increasing bulk of the surfactant head-group.
