    CHAPTER II

    REVIEW OF THE PRESENT WORK

    2.1 A REVIEW ON OXIDATION OF ALDEHYDE:

    An aldehyde is an organic compound containing a terminal

    carbonyl group. Aldehydes are considered to be the derivatives of

    the hydrocarbons in which two hydrogen atoms attached to a

    carbon atom at the end of the chain have been replaced by

    bivalent oxygen.

    Aldehydes are characterized by the presence of a functional

    group,

    R O This group is called aldehyde group.

    The name aldehyde was derived from ‘alcohol dehydrogenatum’,

    as aldehydes are obtained by dehydrogenation or oxidation of

    alcohols.

    The common names of aldehydes are derived from the names of

    the corresponding carboxylic acids by replacing –ic acid by –

    aldehyde.

  • 38

    In the case of formaldehyde both the valencies of the carbonyl

    carbon are satisfied by hydrogen, where as in higher aldehydes

    one of the valency is satisfied by the hydrogen and other by a

    hydrocarbon radical, R- or Ar-.

    Aldehydes are easily oxidized to their corresponding acids hence

    they are reducing agents. C=O is the carbonyl group that largely

    determines the chemistry of aldehydes. Aldehydes are formed by

    partial oxidation of primary alcohol and form carboxylic acids

    when they are further oxidized.

    Aldehydes are quite easily oxidized and usually more reactive

    toward nucleophilic addition.1

    Aldehydes are easily oxidized to carboxylic acids containing the

    same number of carbon atoms, as in parent aldehyde.

    The reason of this easy oxidation is the presence of a hydrogen

    atom on the carbonyl carbon, which can be converted into –OH

    group without involving the cleavage of any other bond. Thus

    even weak oxidizing agents like bromine water, Ag+, Cu2+ etc are

    effective. As a result aldehydes act as strong reducing agent.

    Oxidation of aldehyde depends on whether the reaction is done

    under acidic or alkaline conditions. Under acidic conditions, the

    aldehyde is oxidized to a carboxylic acid. Under alkaline

    conditions, this could not be formed because it would react with

    the alkali and a salt is formed instead.

    2.1.0 PHYSICAL PROPERTIES:

    (a) Formaldehyde is a gas, lower aldehydes other than

    formaldehyde are colorless and volatile liquids and higher

    members are solids.

    (b) Lower members have unpleasant odour, whereas higher

    members possess fruity smell.

    (c) Though the lower members are soluble in water,

    presumably because of hydrogen bonding between solute

    and solvent molecules, the solubility decreases with

    increase of molecular weights.

    (d) Their specific gravities and boiling points show increase

    with increase of molecular weight.

    (e) The polar carbonyl group makes aldehydes polar

    compounds and hence they have higher boiling points than

    non-polar compounds of comparable molecular weight.

    2.1.1 PREPARATION OF ALDEHYDES:2

    Some of the methods of preparation of aldehydes involve

    oxidation or reduction in which an alcohol, hydrocarbon, or acid

    chloride is converted into an aldehyde of the same carbon

    number. Other methods involve the formation of new carbon-

    carbon bonds, and yield aldehydes of higher carbon number than

    the starting materials.

    2.1.2 PROPERTIES AND USES OF ALDEHYDES TAKEN:

    1. ACETALDEHYDE

    Acetaldehyde is a colorless, mobile liquid having a pungent

    suffocating odour that is some what fruity and pleasant in dilute

    concentrations.

    Acetaldehyde occurs naturally in coffee, bread, and ripe fruit, and

    it is produced by plants as part of their normal metabolism.

    The manufacturers use about 95% of the acetaldehyde produced

    internally as an intermediate for the production of other organic

    chemicals.

    Acetaldehyde is used as an antiseptic inhalant in nose troubles. It

    is used in the preparation of paraldehyde and metaldehyde. In the

    preparation of acetaldehyde ammonia ( a rubber accelerator). In

    the preparation of acetic acid, acetic anhydride, ethyl acetate,

    chloral, 1,3-butadiene (in rubbers), dyes and drugs.

  • 41

    2. BUTYRALDEHYDE

    It is also known as butanal, it is an organic compound with the

    formula CH3(CH2)2CHO. It is a colorless flammable liquid with

    an acrid smell. It is miscible with most organic solvents. In the

    open air it is oxidized to butanoic acid.

    Butyraldehyde mainly serves as the precursor to acetic acid, now

    prepared by carbonylation of methanol. It is used as chemical

    intermediate in production of chemicals.

    3. FORMALDEHYDE

    Formaldehyde is gas at room temperature, it is colorless with

    irritating pungent odour. Its uses are as follows:

    The 40% solution of formaldehyde (formalin) is used as

    disinfectant, germicide and antiseptic. It is basically used for the

    preservation of biological specimens.

    It is used in silvering of mirror, employed in manufacture of

    synthetic dyes. It is used in the manufacture of formamint (by

    mixing formaldehyde with lactose) a throat lozenge. It is used for

    making synthetic plastics like bakelite, urea-formaldehyde resin,

    etc. It is used in the preparation of hexamethylene tetramine

    (urotropine) which is used as an antiseptic and germicide.

    4. ISOVALERALDEHYDE

    In the pure state isovaleraldehyde is colorless to yellow liquid

    with unpleasant fruity smell. It is slightly soluble in water. Its

    IUPAC name is 3-Methylbutanal and is also known as 3-

    Methylbutyraldehyde. It occurs in low concentrations in fruits,

    vegetables and beverages (e.g. bourbon whisky).

  • 42

    A small portion of isovaleraldehyde is added to food like the taste

    of butter, cocoa, chocolate and coffee to imitate. Larger portion of

    isovaleraldehyde produced is used as an intermediate product in

    the synthesis of aroma substances and other pharmaceutical

    substances.

    5. SALICYLALDEHYDE

    Salicylaldehyde (HO-C6H4-CHO) is the common name for 2-

    hydroxybenzaldehyde, an oily organic liquid that has the odour of

    buckwheat. It is a simple derivative of the hexagonal ring

    compound benzene. Salicylaldehyde is a powerful tool in

    chelation chemistry and in ring generating condensation

    chemistry.

    The most important use of salicylaldehyde involves chelates

    molecules that act, as the name suggests, like crab claws.

    Salicylaldehyde is almost always chemically modified before use.

    A particular derivative is formed and is applicable in a very

    specific situation.

    Salicylic acid is used for preserving fruit products of all kinds,

    including beverages. It is frequently sold by drug stores as fruit

    acid.

    6. 2-METHYLBUTYRALDEHYDE

    2-Methylbutyraldehyde occurs naturally in green and roasted

    coffee. It is highly inflammable, volatile, colorless to yellow

    liquid. It is suitable as an intermediate for the preparation of

  • 43

    alcohols, acids, esters, amines etc. So it is used for the production

    of odors and flavors.

    2.1.3 WORK DONE IN OXIDATION OF ALDEHYDES

    The oxidations of various aldehydes with various oxidants have

    been studied earlier.

    Credit for the first kinetic study of aldehydes by Chromic Acid

    goes to Lucchi.3 He examined the oxidation of series of aldehydes

    in acetic acid solution, using sulphuric acid as catalyst in 1941.

    Reaction was found out to be first order.

    S.K Sharma and V.P Kudesia studied Kinetic study of the

    oxidation of Isobutyraldehyde by Aqueous Chlorine in 1980.4 It

    was investigated in 11.6% aqueous acetic acid and the reaction

    was first order with respect to both substrate and chlorine. The

    influence of various factors, e.g. ionic strength, inorganic salts,

    D2O and temperature have been calculated and a possible

    mechanism is suggested.

    M.S Ramachandran, T.S Vivekanandam and V. Arunachalam

    studied Kinetics of oxidation of Carbonyl Compounds by

    Peroxomonosulfate. Acetaldehyde, Propionaldehyde and

    Butyraldehyde in 1986.5 Reaction took place in presence of H+

    ion and showed first order dependence on PMS and aldehyde.

    Oxidations of the aldehydes were carried out under pseudo first-

    order conditions, with [aldehydes] have been higher than, at least

    five times, that of [peroxomonosulfate].

  • 44

    Kalyan K Banerji studied the Kinetics and Mechanisms of

    substituted Benzaldehydes by N-Bromobenzamide in 1986.6 He

    founded that oxidation of eighteen meta- and para- substituted

    benzalehydes by NBB, to the corresponding benzoic acid, is first

    order with respect to aldehyde, NBB and hydrogen ion. The rates

    of the oxidation of meta- and para- substituted benzaldehydes

    were separately correlated in Taft’s and Swain’s dual substituent

    parameter equations. A mechanism involving transfer of a hydride

    ion from the aldehyde to the oxidant, in the rate-determining step,

    has been proposed.

    Gowda and Rao7 studied the kinetic and mechanism of oxidation

    of formaldehyde and formic acid by Bromamine-T in perchloric

    acid medium in 1987.

    C.Goswami and K.K Banerji studied Mechanism of oxidation of

    acetaldehyde by Chromic Acid in 1970.8

    Chromic acid oxidations of aromatic aldehydes9,10 and

    formaldehyde11 have been studied in detail, but these aldehydes

    cannot enolize. Some preliminary studies have been carried out

    on the oxidation of acetaldehyde by Rocek12 and by Chaterji and

    Antony.13

    Oxidation of Benzaldehydes by Peroxomonophosphoric Acid. A

    kinetic and mechanistic study in acid and alkaline media was

    done by G.P Panigrahi and Radhashyam Panda in 1978.14 The

    oxidation mechanisms are discussed in terms of a nucleophilic

  • 45

    attack of the peroxomonophosphoric acid species on the carbonyl

    carbon centre.

    Effect of reaction product on the rate of oxidation of

    Crotonaldehyde was studied by O.E Fedevich, S.S Levush, E.V

    Fedevich and Yu. V Kit in 2003.15 Study of the oxidation of

    crotonaldehyde revealed an appreciable inhibitory effect of the

    products on the process.

    Quinolinium Dichromate in sulphuric acid oxidizes Benzaldehyes

    to the corresponding acids in 50%(v/v) acetic acid-water medium.

    Kinetics of oxidation of benzaldehyde by Quinolinium

    Dichromate was studied by H.A.A Medien in 2003.16 The reaction

    is first order each in [QDC], [substrate] and [H+]. The reaction

    rates have been determined at different temperatures and the

    activation parameters calculated.

    Kinetic data on the rates of Quinolinium Dichromate oxidation of

    a series of aliphatic aldehydes have been determined and

    discussed with reference to aldehyde hydration equilibria, by G.S

    Choubey, Simi Das and M.K Mahanti in 2003.17 Kinetic results

    support s pathway proceeding via a rate-determining oxidative

    decomposition of a chromate ester of an aldehyde hydrate.

    Kinetics and mechanism of Chloramine-T oxidation of

    Cinnamaldehyde in two acid media is studied by C.K Mythily,

    K.S Rangappa and N.M.M Gowda in 2004.18 The reaction has

    been studied in solutions containing HCl and H2SO4 at 313K.

  • 46

    The kinetics of the oxidation of a number of para- and meta-

    monosubstituted benzaldehydes by ethyl N-

    chlorocarbamate(ECC) were studied in aqueous acetic acid

    solution in the presence of perchloric acid in 2004, by S.

    Varshney, S. Kothari and K.K Banerji.19 The main oxidation

    product was the corresponding benzoic acid. The reaction is first

    order with respect to the aldehyde, ECC and hydrogen ions.

    Kinetics and mechanism of oxidation of Aromatic aldehydes by

    Imidazolium Dichromate in aqueous acetic acid has been studied

    by S.S Mansoor and S.S Shafi in 2009.20 The reaction was studied

    in presence of perchloric acid. Here the reaction was first order

    each in IDC, Substrate and H+. The reaction rates have been

    determined at different temperatures and the activation parameters

    are calculated. The products of the reaction are found out to be the

    corresponding acids.

    2.2 REVIEW ON MICELLE :

    A micelle is an aggregate of surfactant molecules dispersed in a

    liquid colloid. A micelle is formed when a variety of molecules

    including soaps and detergents are added to water. At low

    concentration in water, detergents exists mostly as monomer.21

    The molecule may be a fatty acid, a salt of a fatty acid (soap),

    phospholipids, or other similar molecules.

    Surface active molecules self-assemble as micelles or vesicles in

    dilute aqueous solutions so as to minimize the contact between

    their hydrophobic tails and water. As a result, the interior of

    micelles and the spherical shells of vesicles are highly non-polar,

    capable of accommodating other non-polar molecules.22

    The molecules have a strong polar head and a non-polar

    hydrocarbon chain tail. When this type of molecule is added to

    water, the non-polar tails of the molecules clump into the center

    of a ball like structure called a micelle, because they are

    hydrophobic or water hating. The polar head of the molecule

    presents itself for interaction with the water molecules on the

    outside of the micelle.

  • 48

    A typical micelle in aqueous solution forms an aggregate with

    the hydrophilic head regions in contact with surrounding solvent,

    segregate the hydrophobic single tail regions in the micelle centre.

    This phase is caused by the insufficient packing issues of single

    tailed lipids in a bilayer. The difficulty filling all the volume of

  • 49

    the interior of a bilayer, while accommodating the area per head

    group forced on the molecule by the hydration of the lipid head

    group leads to the formation of the micelle. This type of micelle is

    known as a normal phase micelle i.e. oil-in-water micelle. Inverse

    micelles23-30 have the head groups at the centre with the tails

    extending out i.e. water-in-oil micelle. Surfactant solubilized

    water pools in the hydrocarbon solvent are referred to as reverse

    or inverse micelles.31-35 Micelles are approximately spherical in

    shape.

    Other phases, including shapes such as ellipsoids, cylinders,

    and bilayers are also possible. The formation of “rodlike”

    structures occurs relatively quickly with increasing concentration,

    and this is then followed by hexagonal phases.36

    Surfactant short for surface active agent designates a substance

    which exhibits some superficial or interfacial activity.

    Surfactants are wetting agents that lower the surface tension of a

    liquid, allowing easier spreading, and lower the interfacial

    tension between two liquids.

    Surfactants are usually organic compounds that are amphiphilic,

    meaning they contain both hydrophobic groups and hydrophilic

    groups. Therefore, they are soluble in both organic solvents and

    water.

    2.2.0 MICELLAR CATALYSIS

    The special properties of surfactants are important in a wide

    variety of applications in chemistry, biology, engineering,

    materials science, and other areas. Surface activity property is

  • 50

    usually due to the fact that the molecule of substance are

    amphipathic or amphiphilic, meaning that each contains both

    hydrophilic and hydrophobic group or we can say having two

    affinities, as a polar group that is attracted to water or water

    soluble group and a non-polar group or water insoluble

    hydrocarbon chain that is repelled by it. The polar region, called

    the headgroup, may be neutral, cationic, anionic, or zwitterionic.

    The hydrophobic tail has one or more chains of varying length,

    composed usually of a hydrocarbon. Common examples are:

    Polyoxyethylene(6) octanol:

    CH3(CH2)7(OCH2CH2)6OH (neutral)

    Cationic :

    CH3(CH2)15(CH3)3N+Br-

    OH

    N-dodecyl-N,N-dimethylglycine

    In dilute surfactant solutions the aggregation of surfactant

    molecules have relied heavily on the theory of micellar self

    assembly.37,38 Surfactants dissolve completely in water at very low

    concentrations, but above a certain level, the critical micelle

    concentration (CMC), the molecules form globular aggregates,

    called micelles.39,40 In contact with the aqueous environment the

    hydrophobic tails assemble together to create a non polar interior

    with the head groups located at the surface of the glob. Micelles

    vary in size and shape, but are commonly rough-surfaced spheres

    with aggregation numbers on the order of 50-100.The presence of

    micelles can have marked effects on chemical reactions. The

    thermodynamic favorability of, for example, an acid dissociation

    can be shifted significantly. Of particular interest in this

    experiment is the alteration in chemical kinetics. Reaction rates

    can be either accelerated or decelerated, depending on the

    chemical system, the type and concentration of the surfactant, and

    other factors, such as pH, ionic strength, etc. The effect of

    surfactants on reaction kinetics is often called micellar catalysis.

    There are several contributing factors for physical basis for

    micellar catalysis. First, there is the effect of the micellar

    environment on the rate-controlling step in the reaction

  • 52

    mechanism. When the reaction takes place in the micellar phase

    instead of the bulk water the relative free energies of the reactants

    and the transition state can be altered. This concept is suggestive

    of catalysis by an enzyme, and many initial studies of rates in

    micellar systems focused on this possibility.41

    However, further studies have shown that this effect is often

    rather small and cannot account for the very large rate changes in

    many micellar systems. A more important consideration is the

    localization of the reacting species in the relatively small volume

    of the micelles compared to the bulk solution. This leads to a

    large increase in the effective concentration and the observed rate

    (in terms of moles per unit time per liter of the entire solution)

    increases accordingly.

    2.2.1 PROPERTIES OF SURFACTANT

    A surfactant in general posses the following characteristic

    properties:42

    1. It must be soluble in at least one phase of a liquid system.

    2. Its molecules are composed of groups with opposing

    solubility tendencies.

    3. At the interphase of a liquid system it must form oriented

    monolayer and its equilibrium concentration at a phase

    interphase is greater than its concentration in bulk of the

    solution.

    4. It forms micelles if the concentration of the solute exceeds

    a limiting value in the bulk of the solution.

  • 53

    5. A surfactant- solute usually displays maximum surface

    activity and functional effectiveness when it is near the

    threshold of insolubility.

    6. The solubility of surfactants is markedly affected by

    temperature and electrolyte concentrations. Thus for each

    set of conditions there is usually an optimum solubility

    balance for each type of surfactants.

    7. A surfactant changes the properties of a solvent in which it

    is dissolved to a much greater extent than would be

    expected from its concentration.

    8. Solutions of surfactants exhibit detergency, foaming,

    wetting, emulsifying, solubilizing and dispersing properties

    either individually or collectively.

    2.2.2 TYPES OF MICELLES

    Depending on their charge characteristics, the surface-active

    molecules may be anionic, cationic, zwitterionic (ampholytic) or

    non-ionic.

    (a) Anionic surfactant:

    Anionic Surfactants are dissociated in water in an amphiphilic

    anion and a cation which is generally alkaline metal or a

    quaternary ammonium. They are the most commonly used

    surfactants. They include alkylbenzene sulfonates (detergents),

    (fatty acids) soaps, lauryl sulphate (foaming agent), di-alkyl

    sulfosuccinate (wetting agent), lignosulfonates (dispersant) etc.

    anionic surfactants account for about 50% of the world

    production.

  • 54

    Anionic surfactant is very soluble in water at room temperature,

    and is used pharmaceutically as a skin cleaner, having

    bacteriostatic action against gram-positive bacteria, and also in

    medicated shampoos. It is a component of emulsifying wax.

    Sodium Lauryl Sulphate is a mixture of sodium alkyl sulphates,

    the chief of which is sodium dodecyl sulphate, C12H25SO4-Na+ .

    (b) Cationic surfactant:

    Cationic Surfactants are dissociated in water into an amphiphilic

    cation and an anion, most often of the halogen type. A very large

    proportion of this class corresponds to nitrogen compounds such

    as fatty amine salts and quaternary ammoniums, with one or

    several long chain of the alkyl type, often coming from natural

    fatty acids.

    The quaternary ammonium and pyridinium cationic surfactants

    are important pharmaceutically because of their bacterial activity

    against a wide range of gram-positive and some gram-negative

    organisms. They may be used on the skin, especially in the

    cleaning of wounds. Their aqueous solutions are used for

    contaminated utensils.

    (c) Non-ionic surfactants:

    Non-ionic Surfactants are about 45% of the overall industrial

    production. They do not ionize in aqueous solution, because their

    hydrophilic group is of a non-dissociable type, such as alcohol,

    phenol, ether, ester or amide.

  • 55

    (d) Zwitterionic surfactants:

    When a single surfactant molecule exhibit both anionic and

    cationic dissociations it is called Amphoteric or Zwitterionic. This

    is the case of synthetic products like betaines or sulfobetaines and

    natural substances such as aminoacids and phospholipids. Some

    amphoteric surfactants are insensitive to pH.

    (e) Polymeric Surfactants:

    These surfactants result from the association of one or several

    macromolecular structures exhibiting hydrophilic and lipophilic

    characters, either as separated blocks or as grafts. They are

    commonly used in formulating products as different as cosmetics,

    paints, food stuffs, and petroleum production additives.

    2.2.3 MICELLAR AGGREGATES (STRUCTURE)

    Surfactants molecules also called amphiphiles or detergents unite

    a polar or ionic head and a nonpolar tail within the same

    molecule. The nonpolar part which is typically made up of one or

    more alkyl chains causes these compounds to be sparingly soluble

    in water, whereas the polar or ionic part interacts strongly with

    water, at certain point the solubility limit will be reached and

    phase separation will set in. Due to the efficient interactions

    between the polar head groups and the surrounding water

    molecules, a complete phase separation is usually unfavorable.

    Instead, the process will be arrested in an intermediate stage with

    concomitant formation of aggregates of amphiphilic material,

    where in the nonpolar parts stick together and are shielded from

    water, whereas the head groups are located in the outer regions of

  • 56

    the aggregates. A multitude of different aggregates can be formed

    in this way.43

    The morphology of these assemblies is mainly determined by the

    shape of the individual surfactant molecules. Ninham and

    Israelachvilli have introduced the concept of the packing

    parameter, allowing prediction of the type of aggregate formed by

    considering the cross-sectional head group area and the length and

    volume of the nonpolar part of the amphiphile molecules.44

    Surfactants containing a single alkyl chain usually form micelles

    when dissolved in water.

    The formation of micelles sets in after a certain critical

    concentration of surfactant (CMC) has been reached. Beyond this

    concentration the addition of more surfactant molecules will

    result in an increase in the number of micelles, while the

    concentration of monomeric surfactant remains almost constant.

    In a homogeneous surfactant solution (above the CMC), the

    reactive site might exist in one or more of the following

    environments: the micelle interior (hydrophobic region), the

    hydrophilic region (stern layer), the micelle water-interface, and

    the bulk solvent.45-49

    Micellisation is usually driven by an increase in entropy.

    Resulting from the liberation of the water molecules from the

    hydrophobic hydration shells of the monomeric amphiphiles

    molecules, whereas the enthalpy change is generally close to

    zero.50

  • 57

    Micelles are extremely dynamic aggregates. Rates of uptake of

    monomers into micellar aggregates are close to diffusion

    controlled.51 The residence time of the individual surfactant

    molecules in the aggregate are typically in the order of 10-5 – 10-6

    seconds,52 whereas the lifetime of the micelles entity is about

    10-3 – 10-1 seconds. Factors that lower the CMC usually increases

    the lifetimes of the micelle as well as the residence times of the

    surfactant molecules in the micelle.53 Due to this dynamic

    character, the size and shape of micelles are subject to appreciable

    structural fluctuations. Hence, micellar aggregates are

    polydisperse, as in the range of 40 – 100.54

    2.2.4 SOLUBILISATION

    One of the most important characteristic of micelles is their

    ability to take up all kinds of substances. Binding of these

    compounds to micelles is generally driven by hydrophobic and

    electrostatic interactions. The dynamics of solubilisation into

    micelles are similar to those observed for entrance and exit of

    individual surfactant molecules. Their uptake into micelles is

    close to diffusion controlled, whereas the residence time depends

    on the structure of the molecule and the solubilisate, and is

    usually in the order of 10-4 to 10-6 seconds.

    Many studies reported about various aspects of solubilisation, for

    example, the capacity of micelles for solubilisation of different

    additives, the distribution equilibrium of an additive between the

    micelles and solvent, the distribution of an additive between the

    micelles, the specificity of solubilisation of additives in micelles,

    the location of an additive in the micelles, the thermodynamics of

  • 58

    solubilisation, and the dynamics and mechanism of

    solubilisation.55-61

    Solubilisation is usually treated in terms of the pseudo phase

    model, in which the bulk aqueous phase is regarded as one phase

    and the micellar pseudo phase as another.

    The incorporation of nonionic solutes into micelles has recently

    been subject to multi-parameter analysis.62 These studies attribute

    a dominant role to the volume of the solubilisate in determining

    the partition coefficient.

    2.2.5 CMC DETERMINATION

    In colloidal and surface chemistry, the critical micelle

    concentration (CMC) is defined as the concentration

    of surfactants above which micelles form and almost all

    additional surfactants added to the system go to micelles.63

    The surfactants can assemble in solution and CMC is an

    important solution property of surfactants.64-65

    Surfactants are the substances that lower the surface tension of a

    liquid and interfacial tension between two liquids, and thus

    allowing easier spreading. In surfactants the hydrophilic groups

    points towards the aqueous phase and hydrocarbon chains points

    towards the air or oil phase. Surfactants spontaneously aggregate

    above a certain concentration called Critical Micellar

    Concentration (CMC) to form micelle66, whose determination has

    considerable practical importance, normally to understand the

    self-organizing behavior of surfactants in exact ways. The

    difference among the CMC values arises from the well-known

    effect of added electrolyte, which lowers the CMC by causing a

  • 59

    decrease in the repulsion between the polar head groups at the

    micelle surface.

    Much work was also done on how the additives affect the CMC

    of the surfactants, and more recently, how the additives affect the

    dynamic behavior of the micelles or the micellar structure; i.e. the

    size and shape of the micelles.67-75

    In most of these studies, surfactant system were used in which

    spherical micelles existed, and it was observed in most of the

    investigations that the solubilised samples often caused the

    spherical micelles to grow to rods.76-80

    There are several frequently used methods like tensiometry,

    conductometry, fluorimetry and caloriemetry for determining

    CMC.81-82 Here we have used conductometric method to

    determine the CMC.

    The CMC values were determined from plots of the specific

    conductivity (k) versus surfactant concentration using

    conductometeric determination method at constant temperature

    308 K. The break point of nearly two straight line portions in the

    plot is taken as an indication of micelle formation, and this

    corresponds to the CMC of surfactants.

    2.2.6 KINETIC MODELS

    A micelle-bound substrate will experience a reaction environment

    different from bulk water, leading to a kinetic medium effect.

    Hence, micelles are able to catalyze or inhibit organic reactions.

  • 62

    Research on micellar catalysis has focused on the kinetics of the

    organic reactions involved.83-89 The kinetic data are essentially

    always treated using the pseudophase model, regarding the

    micellar solution as consisting of two separate phases. The

    simplest case of micellar catalysis applies to unimolecular

    reactions where the catalytic effect depends on the efficiency of

    binding of the reactant and the rate constant of the reaction in the

    micellar pseudophase km and in the aqueous phases kw.

    Reviews on the structure and properties of micelles have been

    published by Fisher and Oakenfull90, Mukherjee91, Menger92. In

    order to account for the organic reaction, the micelle is condensed

    as a separate phase. Rate of acceleration or inhibition arises from

    different rates in micellar and bulk phase. The distribution of the

    substrate has been discussed quantitatively using different

    quantitatively using quantitative models.

    (a) HARTLEY MODEL

    Hartley is the pioneer worker in elucidating the structure of

    micelle.93 His model is a roughly spherical aggregate of 50-200

    monomer, the polar groups being held at the surface in contact

    with aqueous phase.94 The hydrocarbon moieties are put together

    in closed juxtaposition so that the total contact area of the solute

    molecule with water is reduced. The micelle has hydro-carbon

    core and polar surface. The head groups and associated counter

    ions of ionic micelles are found in the compact stern layer, the

    remaining counterions form the diffuse Gouy-Chapman electrical

    double layer. The counterions present in this region are

  • 63

    completely dissociated from the charged aggregate and are able to

    exchange with ions in the bulk solution. The interior of micelle is

    essentially anhydrous and liquid like. However, this model fails to

    explain the facts that micellar radii exceed the length of a fully

    extended chain plus the head group and the micelles have an

    intermediate behavior between water and hydrocarbon.

    (b) MENGER AND PORTNOY MODEL

    In order to describe the kinetic effects of micelles Menger and

    Portnoy95 in 1979 have constructed a model in which the

    hydrocarbon chains are bent to fill the cavities.96 Some of the

    carbon chains protrude outside and thus are in direct contact with

    water. It has rough surface with water filled pockets and a central

    hydrocarbon core. Similar to stern layer of Hartley micelle it

    possesses a stern region that constitutes most part of a micelle.

    This model was quantitative pseudophase model which was

    represented by scheme-I.

    kw kmProduct

    KSDnSDn + S

    Scheme-I

    According to this model, the substrate ‘S’ forms complex (DnS)

    with the micelle Dn, and km and kw are the rate constant for the

    product formation in micellar and aqueous phase respectively.

    The observed rate constant for the product formation is given by

    equation:

  • 64

    1

    (kw-kobs)

    = 1

    (kw-km)+

    (kw-km) ks

    1

    [Dn] --(1)

    This equation predicts that a plot of (kw-kobs)-1 versus [Dn]-1

    (where [Dn]-1 = CSURF - CMC) should be linear. The Menger and

    Portnoy model allows us to determine kinetically the binding

    constant ks and the rate constant km in the micellar phase.

    But this model is not able to explain the distribution of two

    substrates in a bimolecular reaction.

    (c) BEREZIN MODEL

    Berezin and co-workers developed the first general treatment

    based on the pseudo phase model and successfully simulated

    spontaneous and bimolecular reactions between neutral and

    organic reactants. The inhibition of rates at higher concentration

    of surfactant may be explained with the help of Berezin’s

    model97, which involves solubilisation of both the reactants in the

    micellar phase. According to the Berezin’s approach, a solution

    above the CMC may be considered as a two-phase system,

    consisting of an aqueous phase and a micellar pseudo-phase. The

    reactants (S=substrate and O=oxidant) may be distributed as

    shown in scheme-II

    (Substrate)w + (Oxidant)W

    (Substrate)M + (Oxidant)MkM

    KS K0

    kw(Product)w

    (Product)M

  • 65

    A quantitative rate expression for a bimolecular reaction

    occurring only in aqueous (kw path) and micellar (km path) phase

    for the pseudo- first order rate constant is given by Equation

    kW + k'M KS K0 (CSurf-CMC)

    [ 1+ KS (CSurf - CMC) ][ 1+ K0 (CSurf - CMC)]=kobs

    ------(2)

    Where, Ks and Ko are the association constant of substrate and

    oxidant with surfactant, respectively; Csurf is the analytical

    concentration of surfactant; K’m = (Km/V), V being molar volume

    of the micelle; and Kw and Km are the pseudo-first order rate

    constant in the absence and prescence of micelles, respectively.

    Since the oxidant will be charged species and the substrate is

    large molecules, the hydrophobic and electrostatic interactions

    will be expected that Kw>>K’ mKsKo (Csurf – CMC), so that the

    Eq.(3) takes the form represented by the Eq.(2)

    kW

    1+ (KS + K0) (CSurf - CMC) ] + KS K0 (CSurf - CMC)2

    =kobs --(3)

    Again, since (Csurf – CMC) is very small, the terms containing

    (Csurf – CMC)2 may be neglected, and the Eq. (3) may be

    rearranged to Eq.(4).

    1 1 KS + K0 + (CSurf - CMC)kW

    =kobs kW ---------(4)

  • 66

    (d) DILL AND FLORY MODEL

    Dill and Flory98 have proposed their model in 1981. This model

    postulates the negligible penetration of water into the

    hydrocarbon core, which is similar to Hartley model, but in

    contrast to the Hartley model they suggest crystalline nature of

    the hydrocarbon core. In this model the core is divided into a

    number of lattices.

    (e) ROMSTED MODEL

    Romsted has developed a theoretical model for predicting the

    rate-surfactant profile for reactions involving ions.99

    This model has the following limitations –

    1. Reactions occur independently in the micellar and aqueous

    pseudophase and the rate constant can be estimated for

    these reactions.

    2. Micelle surface is saturated with counterions.

    In this respect Romsted’s treatment differs from all previous

    models. The counterions exchange on the micellar surface is

    described by equation –

    Nm + Xw ↔ Nw + Xm ---------(4)

    ‘N’ and ‘X’ are the reactive and unreactive counterions.

    If mN’ s and mX’s are the concentration of the reactive (N) and

    unreactive (X) counterions in the stern layer, measured in terms of

    the ratio of counterions to ionic heads in the micelle, then

  • 67

    mN’s = [Nm]/[Dn] ---------(5)

    mX’ s = [Xm]/[Dn] ---------(6)

    where, [Xm] and [Nm] are the molar concentrations of micellar

    bound X and N respectively.

    If the ratio of counterions bound to the micelle is defined by ‘ẞ’,

    then ẞ = mNs + mXs --------(7)

    So substitution of the values for [Nm] and [Xm], the value of

    equilibrium constant is given by the equation -

    k =[Nw] mXs

    [Xw]mN s ---------(8)

    Nw and Xw are the molar concentration of the counterions in

    water.

    This approach explains qualitatively a number of micellar effects

    upon reaction rates and equilibria.

    (f) BUNTON MODEL

    Bunton et al have proposed a general relation between rate constant

    and the surfactant concentration in micellar catalysed bimolecular

    reaction taking into account the distribution of both the reagents

    between aqueous and micellar phase.100 the first order rate constant

    k, with respect to the substrate and the nucleophile is written by

    equation:

    k =kw [Nw] + kw ks [Nm]

    1 + ks [Dn] ----------(9)

    [Nm] is the molarity of the micellar bound nucleophile (N) in terms

    of total solution volume. Considering the binding of the

  • 68

    nucleophile with the micelles, the binding constant, kM can be

    represented by the equation:

    KM = [Nm] / [Nw] [Dn]

    (g) FROMHERZ MODEL

    Fromherz101 envisaged a surfactant block model for micelle. He has

    constructed a model which accounts both the structural features of

    McBain bilayer and energetic features of Hartley model. He has

    modified the bilayer model such that the energetic features of the

    droplet model are attained. This model successfully explains the

    phenomenon occurring in presence of micelle. His model is an

    antithesis of Menger model.

    (h) PISZKIEWICZ MODEL

    Piszkiewicz102 proposed an entirely different model for micellar

    catalyzed reactions analogous to Hill model as in the case of

    enzyme kinetics. The micellar catalysis or inhibition could be

    applied theoretically by making certain simplifications and

    assuming that only one substrate is incorporated into the micelle

    and that the aggregation number N of the micelle is independent of

    the substrate. On the basis of these assumptions Piskiewicz

    proposed a model for micellar catalyzed reaction analogous to the

    Hill model of enzyme kinetics. This model is applicable especially

    at low surfactant concentrations. This model assumes that an ‘n’

    number of surfactant molecules (D) and substrate (S) aggregate to

    yield the catalysis DnS which then reacts to yield the product (P).

    This is represented by the following scheme-III

  • 69

    kw km

    Products

    KD DnSnD + S

    Products

    Where kD is the dissociation constant of micelle back to its free

    components and km is the rate constant within the micelle. In the

    scheme-III the observed rate constant kobs is expressed as a function

    of surfactant concentration D, by the equation:

    km[D]n + kwKD

    KD + [D]n

    kobs =

    --------(10)

    Following rate expression was obtained on rearrangement and

    taking

    log of above equation we get:

    Log (kobs - kw / km - kobs) = n log [D] – log kD -------(11)

    The values of positive cooperativity (n) are found for the substrate.

    If the value of n is less than 6 it shows good agreement with earlier

    observations of Piskiewicz and this is viewed as an index of

    positive cooperativity, i.e., induced interaction of the micelle with

    the substrate molecule. The value of log kD was calculated from the

    intercept of the plot.

    This equation has been successfully applied to experimental data

    with rate maxima in micellar catalysed reactions and assumes the

    cooperativity in micelle-solute binding.

  • 70

    (i) RAGHVAN AND SRINIVASAN MODEL

    For bimolecular micellar catalyzed reactions, Raghvan and

    Srinivasan103 developed a model. The distribution of the reactants

    in aqueous and micellar phase has been considered in the model.

    This model predicts constancy in kobs values at high surfactant

    concentrations. The product formation is assumed to result from

    the decomposition of a ternary complex involving substrate,

    nucleophile and micelle. The analysis of the data on the basis of the

    model showed that almost all the nucleophile was present in the

    bulk phase. A similar idea has also been given by Romsted.104 The

    model is represented in scheme-IV

    nD + S DnS

    DnS + N DnSN

    DnSN products

    S + N products

    K2

    km

    kw

    K1

    Where, D, S and N refer to detergent monomer, substrate and the

    nucleophile, respectively. While DnS and DnSN refer to binary and

    ternary complexes, respectively. According to the above model, the

    observed rate constant in the presence of a surfactant is given by

    the following equation:

  • 71

    kobs =kw + km K1 K2 [D]

    n

    1 + K1 [D]n {1 + K2 [S]T} ----(12)

    kobs - kw

    kobs [D]n

    =kobs

    - K1{1 + K2 [S]T}(k1k2)1 km

    -----(13)

    This equation predicts a linear relationship between (kobs -

    kw/kobs)1/[D]n and km/kobs . we apply this model by using the value

    of n obtained from Piskiewicz’s Cooperativity model. The plot (kobs

    - kw/kobs)1/[D]n and km/kobs is linear.

    The values of k1 and k2, binding constants can also be evaluated

    with the help of intercepts and slopes of these linear plots.

    2.2.7 WORK DONE USING MICELLES

    Susana Criado105 and co-workers have studied kinetic studies of the

    photosensitized oxidation of tryptophan-alkyl esters in triton X-100

    micellar solutions. In this, an important decrease in the photo-

    oxidation quantum efficiency of the esterified compounds was

    observed due to the presence of the micellar medium. . The

    characterization of the solute-micelle interaction indicates that trp-

    methyl ester, trp-butyl ester and trp-octyl ester bind Triton X-100

    micelles to a different extent, depending on the hydrocarbon length

    of their ester chains.

    Asha Radhakrishnan106 and co-workers studied, micellar catalysed

    autoxidation of iso-butanol, amyl alcohol and iso-amyl alcohol by

    N-Bromobenzamide – A kinetic study. This study has been found

  • 72

    in two stage i.e. slow first stage followed by relatively faster

    second stage. In both the stages the reaction follows first order

    behaviour with respect to each substrate and the oxidant, NBB. The

    reactions have been found out to be catalysed by Sodium Dodecyl

    Sulphate.

    The rate-[surfactant] profile exhibits a maximum. The kinetic

    analysis of the micellar effect has been carried out.

    Kabir-ud-Din108 and co-workers studied, influence of sodium

    by chromic acid in presence of HClO4. In this study the reaction is

    acid catalysed and is associated with an induction period which is

    dependent on [H+], [surfactant] and temperature. The order of

    oxidation during induction under [D-fructose] > [chromic acid]

    conditions is fractional in each reagent in both media. The rate

    constant was found to increase with [Mn(II)]. The micelles produce

    a catalytic effect in the range of SDS and TX-100 concentrations

    used, and the effect is explained by means of the pseudophase

    mass-action model.

    Masood Ahmad Malik and Zaheer Khan109 studied submicellar

    catalytic effect of cetyltrimethylammoniumbromide in the

    oxidation of ethyleneddiaminetetraacetic acid by MnO4. In this

  • 73

    study they found that the premicellar environment of CTAB

    strongly catalyses the reaction rate which may be due to the

    favourable electrostatic binding of both reactants with positive

    head groups of the aggregates. The influence of different

    parameters was also calculated.

    Mansur Ahmed and K. Subramani110 studied, kinetics of oxidation

    of cobalt(III) complexes of ɑ-hydroxy acids by hydrogen peroxide

    peroxide induced electron transfer in [(NH3)5CoIII-L]2+ complexes

    of a-hydroxy acids readily yields 100% of cobalt(II) with nearly

    100% of C-C bond cleavage products suggesting that it behaves

    mainly as one equivalent oxidant in micellar medium. With

    increasing micellar concentration an increase in the rate is

    observed.

    G.P Panigrahi and S.K Mishra111 studied, micellar-catalysis: effect

    of sodium lauryl sulphate in the oxidation of lactic acid by chromic

    acid. In this the oxidation rate however is observed to increase with

    the detergent concentration and reaches maximum at the critical

    micelle concentration of the detergent and then decreases as the

    surfactant concentration increases further. The kinetic data have

    been rationalized by Berezin’s model and the binding constants for

    both the reactants with micelle have been computed.

    Asim K. Das112 studied micellar effect on the kinetics and

    mechanism of chromium (VI) oxidation of organic substrates. The

  • 74

    micellar media can influence the mechanistic path of reduction of

    Cr(VI) to Cr(III). Such studies in micro-heterogeneous systems are

    important from the standpoint of understanding the mechanism of

    redox activity and toxicity of Cr(VI). The possible use of suitable

    surfactants in the two-phase oxidation of organic substances by

    chromic acid is discussed.

    Jagannath Panda and G.P Panigrahi113 studied, kinetic investigation

    a maximum and then decreases. The oxidation rate-[micelle]

    profile is rationalized by Berezin model and binding constants with

    the micelle have been computed using the model.

    M.Yousuf Hussain and Firoz Ahmad114 studied effect of micelles

    on kinetics and mechanism of the oxidation of seriene by acid

    permanganate. In this the reaction is retarded by the hydrogen ion

    in the absence of SDS but catalysed in the presence of SDS.

    Dennis Piszkiewicz115 studied positive cooperativity in micelle-

    catalysed reactions. In this he studied that the rate constants of

    micelle-catlysed reactions, when plotted versus detergent

    concentration gives sigmoid shaped curves. This behaviour is

    analogous to positive cooperativity in enzymatic reactions, a

    sigmoid shaped dependence of velocity on substrate concentration.

    Ekta Pandey and Santosh K. Upadhyay116 studied effect of micellar

    aggregates on the kinetics of oxidation of ɑ-aminoacids by

  • 75

    chloramines-T in perchloric acid medium. In this the presence of

    any surfactant well below its critical micelle concentration strongly

    enhanced the rate of reaction suggesting a premicellar aggregation.

    The kinetic data have been analyzed in terms of earlier reported

    models for micellar catalysis. The binding constants between two

    models proposed by Piszkiewicz and Raghvan and Srinivasan are

    in good agreement.

    A.Lonescu117 and co-workers studied micellar effect on tyrosine

    one-electron oxidation by azide radicals. In this it is shown that,

    whatever the interfacial charge is, micelles exert an efficient

    protection against tyrosine oxidation when compared to aqueous

    solutions. Such an effect is related to different location of the

    reactants in the different media.

    Zoya Zaheer and Rafiuddin118 studied sub- and post-micellar

    catalytic and inhibitory effects of cetyltrimethylammonium

    bromide in the permanganate oxidation of phenylalanine. In this

    the rate shows first and fractional order dependence on [MnO4-]

    and [phe] in presence of CTAB. At lower values of [CTAB] the

    catalytic ability of CTAB aggregates are strong. In contrast at

    higher values of [CTAB], the inhibitory effect was observed in

    absence of H2SO4.

    Abu Mohammad, Azmal Morshed, Zaheer Khan and Kabir-ud

    Din119 studied micellar effects on the oxidation of D-glucose by

    chromic acid in perchloric acid medium. In this it was observed

    that the reaction has a non-autocatalytic followed by an

  • 76

    autocatalytic pathway. The rate of initial stage increases with

    increase in [glucose], [HClO4] and temperature. Due to

    precipitation, the effect of cationic micelles of

    cetyltrimethylammonium bromide (CTAB) could not be studied

    whereas the oxidation is catalyzed by anionic micelles of SDS and

    nonionic micelles of Triton-X-100. The results are discussed in

    terms of pseudo-phase kinetic model.

    Y.R Katre et120-125 al has done work in the field of micellar

    2.3 REVIEW ON N-BROMOPHTHALIMIDE:

    Halogens are highly reactive, and can be harmful to biological

    organisms in sufficient quantities. This high reactivity is due to

    the atoms being highly electronegative due to their high effective

    nuclear charge. Chlorine and bromine are used as disinfectants.

    They kill bacteria and other potentially harmful microorganisms

    through a process known as sterilization. All the halogens form

    binary compounds with hydrogen known as the hydrogen

    halides (HF, HCl, HBr, HI, and HAT), all of which are

    strong acids with the exception of HF. When in aqueous solution,

    the hydrogen halides are known as hydrohalic acids.

    The organic functional group called an imide contains two acyl

    groups that are attached to NH or NR. Most imides are derived

    from dicarboxylic acids. Example succunimide derived

    from succinic acid and phthalimide derived from phthalic acid.

    The nitrogen in imides is not very basi, which allows it to form

    stable compounds with halogens. Treatment of imides with

    halogens and base gives the N-halo derivatives. Examples NBP,

    NBS etc.. The N-halo derivatives are useful compounds and their

    field is very vast.129-135 They may be used as halogenating agents

    as well as oxidizing agents136 or for dehydrogenation reactions.

    2.3.0 N-BROMOPHTHALIMIDE

    Properties:

    N-Bromophthalimide has the molecular formula C8H4BrNO2 with

    the following structure:

    N Br

    N-bromophthalimide

    Its molecular weight is 226.04. It is slight yellow fine crystal. It is

    soluble in acetic acid, ethyl acetate, acetone, acetic anhydride and

    in water, benzene, tetrachloromethane and chloroform. Its melting

    point is greater than 200˚C, and it decomposes at room

    temperature. Solution of N-Bromophthalimide is kept in black

    coated vessel to prevent it from photochemical deterioration.137

    N-Bromophthalimide has been found to be an efficient and

    selective reagent for the mild oxidative cleavage of oximes to

    yield the corresponding carbonyl compounds in good to excellent

    yields.

    Where R1, R2 = Alkyl or Aryl group.

    An interesting example of the chemoselectivity of these reactions

    includes deoximation in the presence of primary benzylic

    alcohols.

    Similar reactions were also carried out under microwave

    irradiation in very short times. NBP has been used for the

  • 79

    oxidation of various organic compounds in the presence of

    mercuric acetate as well as in acetic acid medium.

    N-halo compounds react with olefins and add bromine to the

    double bonds or act as source of hypohalous and acid in aqueous

    solution. Wohl was the first to observe this. N-bromoacetamide

    was thus used as an agent for allylic bromination. Ziegler and his

    co-workers extended in 1942 used N-bromosuccinimide for allylic

    bromination. The work was generalized and was named ‘Wohl-

    Ziegler’ reaction.138

    N-Bromophthalimide is an important member of the class of

    reagents namely N-halo compounds which have been used widely

    as oxidizing and halogenating agent in organic compounds.139-143

    It has been reported by several workers that NBP is stable

    oxidising and brominating agent because of large polarity of N-Br

    bond. NBP is capable of producing Br- ions reasonably shows that

    NBP, like other similar N-halo imides, may exist in various forms

    in acidic medium,144 i.e. free NBP, (NBPH)+, Br+, HOBr,

    (H2OBr)+

    , as per the following equilibria:

    NBP + H+ NHP + Br

    +

    NBP + H+ (NBPH)+

    NBP + H2O HOBr + NHP

    HOBr + H+

    (H2OBr)+

    N-Bromophthalimide has been used in organic synthetic

    methodology especially in the oxidation and bromination

    reactions. In most cases these reagents are converted to

    phthalimide in the end of reactions, as a nontoxic chemical.

  • 80

    This field of chemistry has become an interesting field for

    researchers and number of work has been done with the chemistry

    of N-halo compounds. For example Bromamine-T145,

    Chloramine-T146, N-bromoacetamide147, N-bromosuccinimide148,

    N-chloroacetamide149, N-iodosuccinimide150, N-

    bromophthalimide151, N-bromobenzamide152 and Bromamine-B153

    have been successfully tested as halogenating agents oxidizing

    agent and dehydrating agents. The chemistry of N-halo reagents

    was the subject of several review articles.155-160

    2.3.1 WORK DONE USING BROMO COMPOUNDS

    Amena Anjum and P.Srinivas161 in 2005 studied, kinetics and

    mechanistics aspects of oxidation of acetophenones by N-

    Bromophthalimide in presence of mercuric acetate. The reactions

    of NBP with Acetophenone have been studied in presence of

    excess of Mercuric Acetate in aqueous acetic acid medium. NBP

    acts as moderate oxidant with a redox potential of 1.09 V. the

    reaction kinetics were first order in [NBP] and fractional order in

    [acetophenone]. Variation of phthalimide, mercuric acetate and

    ionic strength had an insignificant effect on reaction rate.

    Kinetics and mechanism of oxidation of some hydroxyl acids by

    N-bromoacetamide is studied by Madhu Saxena162 and co-

    workers in 1991. They found out that the reaction follows

    identical kinetics, being zero order in substrate and first order in

    each NBA, Ir(III) and mercuric acetate. A negative effect of

    hydrogen ions, acetamide and Cl- is observed, while ionic strength

  • 81

    has no effect on reaction velocity. A suitable mechanism

    consistent with the above observations is proposed.

    In 1990 Kakuli Chowdhury and K.K Banerjii163 studied the

    kinetics and mechanism of the oxidation of organic sulfides by N-

    Bromobenzamide. They found out that corresponding sulfoxides

    were the products of the reaction and the reaction followed first

    order with respect to the sulfide, NBB and hydrogen ions. There

    is no effect of added benzamide. Protonated NBB has been

    postulated as the oxidizing species.

    Ajay K. singh164 and co-workers studied, mechanistic study of

    novel oxidation of paracetamol by chloramines-T using micro-

    amount of chloro-complex of Ir(III) as a homogeneous catalyst in

    acidic medium. They found out that the reaction followed first

    order kinetics with respect to chloramines-T, paracetamol and

    chloride ion in their lower concentration range, and tended to zero

    order at their higher concentrations. The first order rate constant

    increased with decrease in the dielectric constant of the medium.

    Ardeshir Khazaei and Abbas Amini Manesh165 studied, facile

    regeneration of carbonyl compounds from oximes under

    microwave irradiations using N-Bromophthalimide. They found

    out new and selective method for the cleavage of oximes by a

    simple reaction of a ketoxime or an aldoxime with N-

    Bromophthalimide in acetone under microwave irradiations.

    N.M.I. Alhaji and S.Sofiya Lawrence Mary166 in 2011 studied,

    kinetics and mechanism of oxidation of glutamic acid by N-

    Bromophthalimide in aqueous acidic medium. This study was

    done in presence of perchloric acid medium at 30˚C by

    potentiometric method. The reaction is first order in each NBP

    and glutamic acid and is negative fractional order in hydrogen

    ion.

    Jagdish V. Bharad167 and co-workers in 2010 studied,

    phosphotungstic acid catalysed oxidation of benzhydrols by N-

    Bromophthalimide. A kinetic study. In absence of mineral acids,

    the oxidation kinetics of benzhydrols by NBP in presence of

    phosphotungstic acid shows first order dependence on NBP and

    fractional order on benzhydrols and phosphotungstic acid.

    E. Kolavari168 and co-workers studied application of N-halo

    reagents in organic synthesis in 2007. This review article

    summarizes published data on the application of N-halo reagents

    in various organic functional group transformation such as:

    oxidation reaction, deprotection and protection of different

    functional groups, halogenation of saturated and unsaturated

    compounds, acylation of alcohols, phenols, amines or thiols,

    epoxidation of alkenes, aziridination and etc.

    Neerja Sachdev169 and co-workers studied, oxidation of d-glucose

    by N-Bromophthalimide in the presence of chlorocomplex of

    iridium(III): a kinetic and mechanistic study.(report) The reaction

    followed first order kinetics with respect to NBP.

  • 83

    M.Kavitha170 and coworkers studied Kinetics and mechanistic

    investigation of N-bromonicotinamide oxidation of aromatic

    aldehydes. It was investigated in aqueous acetic acid and

    perchloric acid medium over the temperature range of 313-328 K.

    The reaction exhibits first order dependence on oxidant and the

    zero order dependence on substrate. The fractional order

    dependence of rate on H+ suggests complex formation between

    oxidant and H+.

    Govindrajnaj171 and coworkers studied oxidation of 2-

    hydroxynaphthaldehyde by alkaline N-bromosuccinimide. A

    kinetic and mechanistic study. The reaction is of first order in

    NBS and of fractional order in both substrate and alkali.

    Increasing ionic strength and decreasing dielectric constant of the

    medium increases the rate of the reaction.

    2.4 PRESENT INVESTIGATION

    In the present investigation following aspects have been studied:

    1. Determination of basic kinetic parameter such as order of

    reaction with respect to [substrates], [N-Bromophthalimide],

    [perchloric acid] for the oxidation reaction of Aldehydes by N-

    Bromophthalimide.

    2. To study the effect of cationic surfactant (CTAB) and

    anionic surfactant (SDS) on the oxidation of aldehydes by N-

    Bromophthalimide. Effect of surfactants explained on the basis of

    Berezin’s model.

    3. Effect of acetic acid, mercuric acetate, phthalimide and

    salts (KBr & KCl) has been studied on the kinetics of oxidation of

    aldehydes.

    4. Effect of temperature has been studied on the kinetics of

    oxidation of all aldehydes by N-Bromophthalimide and different

    thermodynamic parameters have been calculated.

    5. Experimental results are presented for absence and

    presence of (cationic and anionic) surfactants and on the basis of

    different kinetic parameters probable reaction path has been

    proposed.

    The study includes both the experimental results and the

    prediction of the outcome of experiments.
