The kinetics of oxidation of fructose by N-bromosuccinimide in acidic medium in the absence and presence of cationic anionicand nonionic surfactants has been measured iodometrically under pseudo-first-order conditionThe oxidation kinetics of fructoseby N-bromosuccinimide shows a first-order dependence on N-bromosuccinimide fractional order dependence on fructose andnegative fractional order dependence on sulfuric acid The kinetics is treated using Berezinrsquos micellar model that was previouslyused for the catalysis and inhibition of the reactionThe determined stoichiometric ratio was 1 1 (fructose N-bromosuccinimide)The variation ofHg(OAC)
2and succinimide (reaction product) has insignificant effect on reaction rate Effects of surfactants added
acrylonitrile added salts and solvent composition variation have been studied Activation parameters for the reaction have beenevaluated from Arrhenius plot by studying the reaction at different temperatures The rate law has been derived on the basis ofobtained data A plausible mechanism has been proposed from the results of kinetic studies reaction stoichiometry and productanalysis
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
Fructose or fruit sugar is a simple monosaccharidefound in many foods It is one of the three importantdietary monosaccharides along with glucose and galactoseHoney tree fruits berries melons and some root vegetablescontain significant amounts of molecular fructose usuallyin combination with glucose stored in the form of sucroseFructose undergoes the Maillard reaction nonenzymaticbrowning with amino acids Fructose readily dehydrates togive hydroxymethylfurfural (ldquoHMFrdquo) This process may inthe future be part of a low-cost carbon-neutral system toproduce replacements for petrol and diesel from plantationsFructose is an excellent humectant and retains moisture fora long period of time even at low relative humidity (RH)Therefore fructose can contribute to improved quality better

21 Material D-Fructose cetyltrimethylammonium bro-mide (CTAB) sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS) TritonX-100(TX-100) succinimide (NHS) potassium iodide (KI) (all ARs d fine)mercuric acetate (Hg(OAc)

sodium thiosulfate (Na2S2O3sdot2H2O AR Qualigens Exce-
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

minus4mol dmminus3and when [NBS] = 50 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

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

35 Dependence on [Hg(OAc)2] Mercuric acetate was added
to the reaction mixture as scavenger to eliminate Brminus formedin the reaction which could have produced Br

reaction The formed Br2thus might cause another parallel
oxidation Hg(OAc)2 thus ensures the oxidation purely
through NBS
36 Dependence on [Succinimide] The reaction rate isretarded by the addition of succinimide (NHS) which is oneof the products of the reactionThis points to the existence ofa preequilibrium step (3) Consider

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

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

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

strength constant
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

35 Dependence on [Hg(OAc)2] Mercuric acetate was added
to the reaction mixture as scavenger to eliminate Brminus formedin the reaction which could have produced Br

reaction The formed Br2thus might cause another parallel
oxidation Hg(OAc)2 thus ensures the oxidation purely
through NBS
36 Dependence on [Succinimide] The reaction rate isretarded by the addition of succinimide (NHS) which is oneof the products of the reactionThis points to the existence ofa preequilibrium step (3) Consider

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

is enthalpy of activation Δ119878is entropy of activation and 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)
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

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

35 Dependence on [Hg(OAc)2] Mercuric acetate was added
to the reaction mixture as scavenger to eliminate Brminus formedin the reaction which could have produced Br

reaction The formed Br2thus might cause another parallel
oxidation Hg(OAc)2 thus ensures the oxidation purely
through NBS
36 Dependence on [Succinimide] The reaction rate isretarded by the addition of succinimide (NHS) which is oneof the products of the reactionThis points to the existence ofa preequilibrium step (3) Consider

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
119886is energy of activation Δ119867
is enthalpy of activation Δ119878is entropy of activation and Δ119866
is free entropy of activation

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
In Scheme 2 119878 stands for D-sucrose 119870

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

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

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
119886is energy of activation Δ119867
is enthalpy of activation Δ119878is entropy of activation and Δ119866
is free entropy of activation

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

is enthalpy of activation Δ119878is entropy of activation and 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)
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

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

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

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
