A homologous series of photocleavable cationic surfactants was prepared.These aryl-alkyl-ketone type surfactants have the following structure .Their critical micelle concentration in water was determined.The photodegradation study has shown that the cleavage occurs with a high quantum yield by a Norrish II mechanism with formation of alkene, substituted acetophenone and cyclobutanols.The photochemical yield of cleavage reaches 75 percent with formation of a hydrophilic (substituted acetophenone) and a hydrophobic derivative (alkene).
