Abstract
The structure of water/cetyltrimethylammonium bromide/n-butanol/hexane microemulsions was studied by conductometry, viscometry, and Fourier transform 1H NMR spectroscopy with pulse magnetic field gradient. The regions of phase inversion from inverse micelles in hexane through a bicontinual structure to a dispersion of normal micelles in water were determined. The influence of the structure of the microemulsions on the rate of hydrolysis of carboxylic acid p-nitrophenyl esters was analyzed. The hydrolysis rate constants considerably increase in going from inverse to normal microemulsions.
