Micellar Effects upon Alkene Bromination. 2. The Role of Alkene Hydrophobicity
Surface polarity of cettyltrimethylammonium bromide (CTAB) aqueous micelles was checked by use of as a probe the bromination reaction of a series of 1-alkenes and a water-soluble alkene, cis-4-cyclohexene-1,2-dicarboxylic acid dimethyl ester (I).There was
