Abstract

Herein, we have synthesized and characterized dicationic Gemini surfactants. The effect of their micelles on the rate constant of ninhydrin with [Cu(II)-Gly-Gly]⁺ complex reaction was investigated under pseudo-first-order-conditions. Experiments were carried out by means of spectrophotometry. First- and fractional-order dependencies on [Cu(II)-Gly-Gly]⁺ and ninhydrin, respectively, were found. The results indicated that the efficiency of micellar catalysis by Gemini surfactants was significantly higher as compared to single-chained surfactant cetyltrimethylammonium bromide, CTAB. The Gemini surfactant produces a catalytic effect and leveling-off regions (just like CTAB) on the reaction rate. Later, Gemini with higher concentrations gives a third region of increasing k_ψ. The effect of surfactants was rationalized by hydrophobic and electrostatic interactions. The observed kinetic effects are explained by applying the Menger-Portnoy model.

Kurzfassung

In dieser Untersuchung wurden di-kationische Geminitenside synthetisiert und charakterisiert. Der Einfluss ihrer Mizellen auf die Geschwindigkeitskonstante der Ninhydrin-[Cu(II)-Gly-Gly]⁺-Komplexreaktion wurde unter den Bedingungen der Pseudo-Ersten-Ordnung untersucht. Experimente wurden mittels Spektrophotometrie durchgeführt. Es wurden Abhängigkeiten erster bzw. gebrochener Ordnung von dem Komplex [Cu(II)-Gly-Gly]⁺ bzw. von Ninhydrin gefunden. Die Ergebnisse zeigten, dass die Effizienz der mizellaren Katalyse durch die Geminitenside signifikant höher war als die mit dem einfachen Tensid Cetyltrimethylammoniumbromid (CTAB) durchgeführten Reaktion. Das Geminitensid erzeugt einen katalytischen Effekt auf die Reaktionsgeschwindigkeit und abflachende Bereiche (genau wie CTAB). Später zeigt sich bei höheren Geminitensid-Konzentrationen eine dritte Region mit zunehmendem k_ψ. Der Einfluss der Tenside wurde durch hydrophobe und elektrostatische Wechselwirkungen begründet. Die beobachteten kinetischen Effekte werden durch Anwendung des Menger-Portnoy-Modells erklärt.
