Transition state stabilization by micelles: Thiolysis of p-nitrophenyl alkanoates in cetyltrimethylammonium bromide micelles
Thiolysis of p-nitrophenyl esters (acetate to decanoate) by the anion of 2-mercaptoethanol (ME) is catalyzed by micelles of cetyltrimethylammonium bromide (CTAB) in aqueous solution. At fixed [ME], the observed rate constants (k(obs)) show saturation with
