1 Introduction

It is well known that aqueous charged interphases play animportant role in the enhancement of the rate of chemicalreactions [1ndash5] Micelles act as microreactors which bothspeed and inhibit the rates of a wide variety of uni- andbimolecular reactions and shift the equilibrium constants ofmany indicators [6ndash15] Aggregate effects on chemical reac-tivity are generally interpreted by using pseudophase modelswhich treat micelles and water as separate reaction mediathat is separate phases or pseudophases This approachhas been successfully applied to a wide range of chemicalreactions in micellar solution including mixed micelle andin other types of association colloids such asmicroemulsionsand vesicle Surfactant aggregates affect chemical reactivityprimarily by binding or excluding reactants and only secon-darily by changing the free energy of activation [16ndash19]

Considerable attention has centred on N-bromosuc-cinimide (NBS) because of its versatile behaviour asmildoxidant halogenating agent and N-anions which acts

both as bases and nucleophiles NBS is well-known analyticalreagent and the mechanistic aspects of its reactions havebeen documented [20ndash25] As a part of our mechanisticstudies of oxidation of substrate by the NBS I report thekinetics of oxidation of D-fructose by NBS in the micellarregion

laR Qualigens fine chemicals) used were of highest purityavailable commercially Solutions were prepared in doubledistilled water To maintain hydrogen ion concentrationconstant sulfuric acid (H

2SO4 AR s d fine) was used

Distilled glacial acetic acid (AR s d fine) was used assolvent NBS (Aldrich Germany) solution was standardizediodometrically and stored in an amber coloured bottle toavoid any photochemical deterioration [26]

22 Kinetic Measurements All the kinetic measurementswere carried out in an amber coloured vessel at 313 Kand performed under pseudo-first-order condition with [D-fructose]≫[NBS] The required solutions of all the reactants(except oxidant) were taken in an amber coloured reac-tion vessel to avoid photochemical deterioration [26] Thereaction vessel was kept in the thermostated water bath atfixed temperature and the solution was left to stand for30min to attain equilibrium The reaction was initiated bythe rapid addition of known amounts of D-fructose to areactionmixture containing the required amount of the NBSH2SO4 mercuric acetate acetic acid and water in glass-

stoppered Pyrex boiling tubes and thermostated at 313 KThereaction was initiated with the addition of required volumeof thermally equilibrated oxidant solution The zero timewas taken when NBS solution has been added The progressof the reaction was followed by iodometric estimation ofunconsumed NBS by pipetting out aliquots at different timeintervals The kinetics was monitored for 80 completion ofthe reaction The results are reproducible to within plusmn25with average linear regression coefficient

23 Product Analysis and Stoichiometry Different ratiosof NBS to D-fructose were equilibrated at 313 K in thepresence of a requisite amount of all reactants that issulfuric acid mercuric acetate and acetic acid under thecondition of [NBS] ≫ [D-fructose] for 72 h (when [NBS] =10 times 10

After the kinetic experiment was completed a part of theoxidized reaction mixture was treated with alkaline hydroxy-lamine solution and the presence of lactone in the reactionmixture was tested by FeCl

24 Determination of CMC Values The role of micellarcatalysis may not be understood without its critical micelleconcentration This is the concentration where surfactantwill work as micelle Therefore it is very interesting aswell as important to know this factor very correctly andaccurately The critical micelle concentration (CMC) valuesof surfactants (CTAB SDS TX-100) in the presence andabsence of substrate and oxidants (Table 1) were determinedfrom plots of the specific conductivity (Q) versus surfactantconcentration using conductometric determination methodand carried out with a digital conductivity meter model 611Eat 40∘CThe values of CMC of surfactants are sensitive to thenature of the reactants and also depend upon reaction con-ditions The break point of nearly two straight-line portionsin the plot is taken as an indication of micelle formation andthis corresponds to the CMC of surfactant

31 Dependence on [Fructose] The effect of varying theconcentrations of fructose on rate in aqueous and micellarmedia showed that the reaction order is fractional Furthera plot of log 119896obs versus log[fructose] was linear with a slopeless than unity (Figure 1) The results are summarized inTable 2

32 Dependence on [NBS] The reaction is of first order in[NBS] in the absence and presence of surfactant as indicatedby the linearity of a plot of log [NBS] versus time (Figure 2)This was further confirmed by the fact that the first-order rateconstant is invariant with different initial concentrations ofNBS (Table 2)

33 Dependence on [H2SO4] The rate constant decreased

with increasing [H2SO4] A plot of log 119896obs versus log

[H2SO4] was linear with a slope that is negative (Figure 4)

and less than unity indicating a negative fractional orderdependence on the rate on [H

2SO4] The results are summa-

rized in Table 2

34 Dependence on Solvent The rate constant decreased withincreasing acetic acid content (20ndash50 [vv]) The results are

summarized in Table 2 A plot of log119870obs versus 1120576was linearwith a negative slope [30] (Figure 3 (2)) Blank experimentsperformed showed that the oxidation of acetic acid by NBSduring the period of study was negligible Consider

reaction The formed Br2thus might cause another parallel

The positive bromine from NBS can be transferred to thefructose through the intermediate formation of HOBr

37 Dependence on [Salt] Added salts inhibit the micellarcatalysis which is a general phenomenonThe inhibition hasbeen explained by assuming that the counterions competewith an ionic reactant for a site on the micelle [31] andcause shape change from spherical to rod-like micelles Theadded salts (KCl KBr and Na

2SO4) inhibit the rate of

reaction As the concentration of these electrolytes increases

the concentration of reactants at the reaction site decreasesbecause these are responsible for rate inhibition of micellar-mediated reactions due to the exclusion of the reagent(s) fromthe micellar pseudophase

311 Effect of Varying [Surfactants] In the case of D-sucrosethe cationic surfactant CTAB and nonionic surfactant TX-100 have been found to show the rate accelerating effectwhereas the anionic surfactant SDS has been found to showthe rate retarding effect In all cases after a certain con-centration of surfactant the rate constant attains a limitingvalue In presence of the cationic surfactant CTAB boththe reactants that is D-sucrose (it should hydrolyse intoglucose and fructose with negative charge) and NBS arepreferably partitioned in the stern layer of CTAB (a cationicsurfactant) bearing the positively charged micellar headgroups and consequently the rate is accelerated (Figures 6and 7) (Table 4) In presence of the nonionic surfactant TX-100 both the reactants that is D-sucrose (a hydrophilicsubstance) and NBS are preferably partitioned in the sternlayer of TX-100 (a nonionic surfactant) bearing not anycharge on micellar head groups and consequently the rateis accelerated The anionic species of D-sucrose (Scheme 1)and NBS is being repelled by the negatively charged micellarhead groups of SDS (an anionic surfactant) and consequentlythe rate is retarded (Figures 8 and 9) (Table 4) A possible

2SO4 AR s d fine) was used

Distilled glacial acetic acid (AR s d fine) was used assolvent NBS (Aldrich Germany) solution was standardizediodometrically and stored in an amber coloured bottle toavoid any photochemical deterioration [26]

22 Kinetic Measurements All the kinetic measurementswere carried out in an amber coloured vessel at 313 Kand performed under pseudo-first-order condition with [D-fructose]≫[NBS] The required solutions of all the reactants(except oxidant) were taken in an amber coloured reac-tion vessel to avoid photochemical deterioration [26] Thereaction vessel was kept in the thermostated water bath atfixed temperature and the solution was left to stand for30min to attain equilibrium The reaction was initiated bythe rapid addition of known amounts of D-fructose to areactionmixture containing the required amount of the NBSH2SO4 mercuric acetate acetic acid and water in glass-

stoppered Pyrex boiling tubes and thermostated at 313 KThereaction was initiated with the addition of required volumeof thermally equilibrated oxidant solution The zero timewas taken when NBS solution has been added The progressof the reaction was followed by iodometric estimation ofunconsumed NBS by pipetting out aliquots at different timeintervals The kinetics was monitored for 80 completion ofthe reaction The results are reproducible to within plusmn25with average linear regression coefficient

23 Product Analysis and Stoichiometry Different ratiosof NBS to D-fructose were equilibrated at 313 K in thepresence of a requisite amount of all reactants that issulfuric acid mercuric acetate and acetic acid under thecondition of [NBS] ≫ [D-fructose] for 72 h (when [NBS] =10 times 10

After the kinetic experiment was completed a part of theoxidized reaction mixture was treated with alkaline hydroxy-lamine solution and the presence of lactone in the reactionmixture was tested by FeCl

other part of the reaction mixture barium carbonate wasadded to make the solution neutral [29] FeCl

that had been coloured violet with phenol when added tothis reaction mixture gave bright-yellow colouration [38]indicating the presence of aldonic acid It is concluded thatlactone formed in the rate-determining step is hydrolyzedto aldonic acid in neutral medium in a fast step At higherpH [lactone] is reduced because of the formation of aldonicacid anion that shifts the equilibrium away from lactone

24 Determination of CMC Values The role of micellarcatalysis may not be understood without its critical micelleconcentration This is the concentration where surfactantwill work as micelle Therefore it is very interesting aswell as important to know this factor very correctly andaccurately The critical micelle concentration (CMC) valuesof surfactants (CTAB SDS TX-100) in the presence andabsence of substrate and oxidants (Table 1) were determinedfrom plots of the specific conductivity (Q) versus surfactantconcentration using conductometric determination methodand carried out with a digital conductivity meter model 611Eat 40∘CThe values of CMC of surfactants are sensitive to thenature of the reactants and also depend upon reaction con-ditions The break point of nearly two straight-line portionsin the plot is taken as an indication of micelle formation andthis corresponds to the CMC of surfactant

31 Dependence on [Fructose] The effect of varying theconcentrations of fructose on rate in aqueous and micellarmedia showed that the reaction order is fractional Furthera plot of log 119896obs versus log[fructose] was linear with a slopeless than unity (Figure 1) The results are summarized inTable 2

32 Dependence on [NBS] The reaction is of first order in[NBS] in the absence and presence of surfactant as indicatedby the linearity of a plot of log [NBS] versus time (Figure 2)This was further confirmed by the fact that the first-order rateconstant is invariant with different initial concentrations ofNBS (Table 2)

37 Dependence on [Salt] Added salts inhibit the micellarcatalysis which is a general phenomenonThe inhibition hasbeen explained by assuming that the counterions competewith an ionic reactant for a site on the micelle [31] andcause shape change from spherical to rod-like micelles Theadded salts (KCl KBr and Na

2SO4) inhibit the rate of

reaction As the concentration of these electrolytes increases

39 Temperature Effect and Activation Parameters The oxi-dation of fructose was studied at 30ndash50∘C and the dataare presented in Table 3 Arrhenius parameters evaluatedfrom linear plots of log 119896obs versus 1119879 were computed fromArrhenius and Eyring equations (Figure 5) in Table 3 Thecatalytic behavior of CTAB and TX-100 micelles indicatesthat the complex of fructose-NBShas the negative chargeThecationic head group may form an ion pair with the reactiveand existing complex of fructose-NBS As a result a largenumber of fructose-NBS complexes are incorporated into thesmall volume of cationic micelles But the nonionic micellesform hydrogen bond with the fructose-NBS complex In thepresence of SDS on the other hand there is electrostaticrepulsion between the negative head group of SDS micellesand the reactive species of fructose-NBS complex The resultis that slightly inhibitory effect is possible A higher value of119864

119886in the presence of SDS shows the slightly inhibitory effect

on the rate of reaction whereas a low value in the presenceof CTAB and TX-100 shows the catalytic effect The largenegative value of Δ119878

in the presence of CTAB and TX-100indicates that more ordered activated complex is formedThe fairly high positive values of Δ119867

and Δ119866

indicate thatthe transition state is highly solvated The nearly same valueof Δ119866

On the other hand NBS exists in the following equilibria

Reactive Species of NBS in Aqueous Medium Consider

Since on assumption of NBS or (NBSH)

+ can be taken as the reactive speciesWhenHOBr istaken as the reactive species the rate law explains the negativeeffect of [H+] and [NHS] Thus HOBr is taken as the mostreactive species which gave the rate law capable of explainingall the kinetic observations and other effects

According to above experimental conditions HOBr is themost reactive species of NBS and considering the fact thatone mole of D-sucrose is oxidized by two moles of NBS inScheme 2

31 Dependence on [Fructose] The effect of varying theconcentrations of fructose on rate in aqueous and micellarmedia showed that the reaction order is fractional Furthera plot of log 119896obs versus log[fructose] was linear with a slopeless than unity (Figure 1) The results are summarized inTable 2

32 Dependence on [NBS] The reaction is of first order in[NBS] in the absence and presence of surfactant as indicatedby the linearity of a plot of log [NBS] versus time (Figure 2)This was further confirmed by the fact that the first-order rateconstant is invariant with different initial concentrations ofNBS (Table 2)

33 Dependence on [H2SO4] The rate constant decreased

with increasing [H2SO4] A plot of log 119896obs versus log

[H2SO4] was linear with a slope that is negative (Figure 4)

and less than unity indicating a negative fractional orderdependence on the rate on [H

2SO4] The results are summa-

rized in Table 2

34 Dependence on Solvent The rate constant decreased withincreasing acetic acid content (20ndash50 [vv]) The results are

summarized in Table 2 A plot of log119870obs versus 1120576was linearwith a negative slope [30] (Figure 3 (2)) Blank experimentsperformed showed that the oxidation of acetic acid by NBSduring the period of study was negligible Consider

reaction The formed Br2thus might cause another parallel

oxidation Hg(OAc)2 thus ensures the oxidation purely

The positive bromine from NBS can be transferred to thefructose through the intermediate formation of HOBr

37 Dependence on [Salt] Added salts inhibit the micellarcatalysis which is a general phenomenonThe inhibition hasbeen explained by assuming that the counterions competewith an ionic reactant for a site on the micelle [31] andcause shape change from spherical to rod-like micelles Theadded salts (KCl KBr and Na

2SO4) inhibit the rate of

reaction As the concentration of these electrolytes increases

the concentration of reactants at the reaction site decreasesbecause these are responsible for rate inhibition of micellar-mediated reactions due to the exclusion of the reagent(s) fromthe micellar pseudophase

39 Temperature Effect and Activation Parameters The oxi-dation of fructose was studied at 30ndash50∘C and the dataare presented in Table 3 Arrhenius parameters evaluatedfrom linear plots of log 119896obs versus 1119879 were computed fromArrhenius and Eyring equations (Figure 5) in Table 3 Thecatalytic behavior of CTAB and TX-100 micelles indicatesthat the complex of fructose-NBShas the negative chargeThecationic head group may form an ion pair with the reactiveand existing complex of fructose-NBS As a result a largenumber of fructose-NBS complexes are incorporated into thesmall volume of cationic micelles But the nonionic micellesform hydrogen bond with the fructose-NBS complex In thepresence of SDS on the other hand there is electrostaticrepulsion between the negative head group of SDS micellesand the reactive species of fructose-NBS complex The resultis that slightly inhibitory effect is possible A higher value of119864

119886in the presence of SDS shows the slightly inhibitory effect

on the rate of reaction whereas a low value in the presenceof CTAB and TX-100 shows the catalytic effect The largenegative value of Δ119878

in the presence of CTAB and TX-100indicates that more ordered activated complex is formedThe fairly high positive values of Δ119867

and Δ119866

indicate thatthe transition state is highly solvated The nearly same valueof Δ119866

in the absence and presence of surfactant indicatedoperation of similar reaction mechanism in both cases Here119864

groups can be influenced by the presence of the carbonylgroup Monosaccharides exist mainly as pyranoid and fura-noid forms with the former being more stable [32]

On the other hand NBS exists in the following equilibria

Reactive Species of NBS in Aqueous Medium Consider

NBS + H2O 999445999468 NHS + HOBr (4)

HOBr + H+ 999445999468 (H2OBr)+ (5)

NBS + H+ 999445999468 (NBSH)

NBS + H+ 999445999468 NHS + Br+ (7)

Since on assumption of NBS or (NBSH)

+ as the reactivespecies the rate law fails to explain the negative effectof phthalimide hence neither of these species NBS and(NBSH)

+ can be taken as the reactive speciesWhenHOBr istaken as the reactive species the rate law explains the negativeeffect of [H+] and [NHS] Thus HOBr is taken as the mostreactive species which gave the rate law capable of explainingall the kinetic observations and other effects

According to above experimental conditions HOBr is themost reactive species of NBS and considering the fact thatone mole of D-sucrose is oxidized by two moles of NBS inScheme 2

311 Effect of Varying [Surfactants] In the case of D-sucrosethe cationic surfactant CTAB and nonionic surfactant TX-100 have been found to show the rate accelerating effectwhereas the anionic surfactant SDS has been found to showthe rate retarding effect In all cases after a certain con-centration of surfactant the rate constant attains a limitingvalue In presence of the cationic surfactant CTAB boththe reactants that is D-sucrose (it should hydrolyse intoglucose and fructose with negative charge) and NBS arepreferably partitioned in the stern layer of CTAB (a cationicsurfactant) bearing the positively charged micellar headgroups and consequently the rate is accelerated (Figures 6and 7) (Table 4) In presence of the nonionic surfactant TX-100 both the reactants that is D-sucrose (a hydrophilicsubstance) and NBS are preferably partitioned in the sternlayer of TX-100 (a nonionic surfactant) bearing not anycharge on micellar head groups and consequently the rateis accelerated The anionic species of D-sucrose (Scheme 1)and NBS is being repelled by the negatively charged micellarhead groups of SDS (an anionic surfactant) and consequentlythe rate is retarded (Figures 8 and 9) (Table 4) A possible

The positive bromine from NBS can be transferred to thefructose through the intermediate formation of HOBr

37 Dependence on [Salt] Added salts inhibit the micellarcatalysis which is a general phenomenonThe inhibition hasbeen explained by assuming that the counterions competewith an ionic reactant for a site on the micelle [31] andcause shape change from spherical to rod-like micelles Theadded salts (KCl KBr and Na

2SO4) inhibit the rate of

reaction As the concentration of these electrolytes increases

the concentration of reactants at the reaction site decreasesbecause these are responsible for rate inhibition of micellar-mediated reactions due to the exclusion of the reagent(s) fromthe micellar pseudophase

39 Temperature Effect and Activation Parameters The oxi-dation of fructose was studied at 30ndash50∘C and the dataare presented in Table 3 Arrhenius parameters evaluatedfrom linear plots of log 119896obs versus 1119879 were computed fromArrhenius and Eyring equations (Figure 5) in Table 3 Thecatalytic behavior of CTAB and TX-100 micelles indicatesthat the complex of fructose-NBShas the negative chargeThecationic head group may form an ion pair with the reactiveand existing complex of fructose-NBS As a result a largenumber of fructose-NBS complexes are incorporated into thesmall volume of cationic micelles But the nonionic micellesform hydrogen bond with the fructose-NBS complex In thepresence of SDS on the other hand there is electrostaticrepulsion between the negative head group of SDS micellesand the reactive species of fructose-NBS complex The resultis that slightly inhibitory effect is possible A higher value of119864

119886in the presence of SDS shows the slightly inhibitory effect

on the rate of reaction whereas a low value in the presenceof CTAB and TX-100 shows the catalytic effect The largenegative value of Δ119878

in the presence of CTAB and TX-100indicates that more ordered activated complex is formedThe fairly high positive values of Δ119867

and Δ119866

indicate thatthe transition state is highly solvated The nearly same valueof Δ119866

in the absence and presence of surfactant indicatedoperation of similar reaction mechanism in both cases Here119864

On the other hand NBS exists in the following equilibria

Reactive Species of NBS in Aqueous Medium Consider

NBS + H2O 999445999468 NHS + HOBr (4)

HOBr + H+ 999445999468 (H2OBr)+ (5)

NBS + H+ 999445999468 (NBSH)

NBS + H+ 999445999468 NHS + Br+ (7)

Since on assumption of NBS or (NBSH)

+ as the reactivespecies the rate law fails to explain the negative effectof phthalimide hence neither of these species NBS and(NBSH)

+ can be taken as the reactive speciesWhenHOBr istaken as the reactive species the rate law explains the negativeeffect of [H+] and [NHS] Thus HOBr is taken as the mostreactive species which gave the rate law capable of explainingall the kinetic observations and other effects

According to above experimental conditions HOBr is themost reactive species of NBS and considering the fact thatone mole of D-sucrose is oxidized by two moles of NBS inScheme 2

311 Effect of Varying [Surfactants] In the case of D-sucrosethe cationic surfactant CTAB and nonionic surfactant TX-100 have been found to show the rate accelerating effectwhereas the anionic surfactant SDS has been found to showthe rate retarding effect In all cases after a certain con-centration of surfactant the rate constant attains a limitingvalue In presence of the cationic surfactant CTAB boththe reactants that is D-sucrose (it should hydrolyse intoglucose and fructose with negative charge) and NBS arepreferably partitioned in the stern layer of CTAB (a cationicsurfactant) bearing the positively charged micellar headgroups and consequently the rate is accelerated (Figures 6and 7) (Table 4) In presence of the nonionic surfactant TX-100 both the reactants that is D-sucrose (a hydrophilicsubstance) and NBS are preferably partitioned in the sternlayer of TX-100 (a nonionic surfactant) bearing not anycharge on micellar head groups and consequently the rateis accelerated The anionic species of D-sucrose (Scheme 1)and NBS is being repelled by the negatively charged micellarhead groups of SDS (an anionic surfactant) and consequentlythe rate is retarded (Figures 8 and 9) (Table 4) A possible

39 Temperature Effect and Activation Parameters The oxi-dation of fructose was studied at 30ndash50∘C and the dataare presented in Table 3 Arrhenius parameters evaluatedfrom linear plots of log 119896obs versus 1119879 were computed fromArrhenius and Eyring equations (Figure 5) in Table 3 Thecatalytic behavior of CTAB and TX-100 micelles indicatesthat the complex of fructose-NBShas the negative chargeThecationic head group may form an ion pair with the reactiveand existing complex of fructose-NBS As a result a largenumber of fructose-NBS complexes are incorporated into thesmall volume of cationic micelles But the nonionic micellesform hydrogen bond with the fructose-NBS complex In thepresence of SDS on the other hand there is electrostaticrepulsion between the negative head group of SDS micellesand the reactive species of fructose-NBS complex The resultis that slightly inhibitory effect is possible A higher value of119864

119886in the presence of SDS shows the slightly inhibitory effect

on the rate of reaction whereas a low value in the presenceof CTAB and TX-100 shows the catalytic effect The largenegative value of Δ119878

in the presence of CTAB and TX-100indicates that more ordered activated complex is formedThe fairly high positive values of Δ119867

and Δ119866

indicate thatthe transition state is highly solvated The nearly same valueof Δ119866

On the other hand NBS exists in the following equilibria

Reactive Species of NBS in Aqueous Medium Consider

NBS + H2O 999445999468 NHS + HOBr (4)

Since on assumption of NBS or (NBSH)

+ as the reactivespecies the rate law fails to explain the negative effectof phthalimide hence neither of these species NBS and(NBSH)

+ can be taken as the reactive speciesWhenHOBr istaken as the reactive species the rate law explains the negativeeffect of [H+] and [NHS] Thus HOBr is taken as the mostreactive species which gave the rate law capable of explainingall the kinetic observations and other effects

According to above experimental conditions HOBr is themost reactive species of NBS and considering the fact thatone mole of D-sucrose is oxidized by two moles of NBS inScheme 2

4 Summary

In summary the following conclusions can be drawn Kineticparameters for the reaction were determined assuming thatthe dominant active species of NBS is HOBr Activationand thermodynamic parameters have been evaluated forboth in absence and presence of the surfactants The CMCvalues are lower than those given in the literature foraqueous solutions of surfactants without added electrolyteThe reaction was found to be first and fractional order eachwith respect to the oxidant and the reductant The mech-anism of the reaction involves (i) hydrolysis of D-sucroseinto monosaccharide units glucose and fructose and (ii)oxidation of both monosaccharide units Oxidation productis lactone of aldonic acid The rate of oxidation increaseswith increasing concentration of CTAB and TX-100The SDSshows inhibitory effect The effect of micellization can becorrelated with the nature of the reducing substrates and

4 Summary

In summary the following conclusions can be drawn Kineticparameters for the reaction were determined assuming thatthe dominant active species of NBS is HOBr Activationand thermodynamic parameters have been evaluated forboth in absence and presence of the surfactants The CMCvalues are lower than those given in the literature foraqueous solutions of surfactants without added electrolyteThe reaction was found to be first and fractional order eachwith respect to the oxidant and the reductant The mech-anism of the reaction involves (i) hydrolysis of D-sucroseinto monosaccharide units glucose and fructose and (ii)oxidation of both monosaccharide units Oxidation productis lactone of aldonic acid The rate of oxidation increaseswith increasing concentration of CTAB and TX-100The SDSshows inhibitory effect The effect of micellization can becorrelated with the nature of the reducing substrates and
