Popis: | The dynamic NMR (DNMR) method was used to detect kinetic parameters of the molecular exchange process between monomers in bulk solution and those in the micelle for Gemini surfactants, 12-s-12 and 14-s-14 (s=2, 3 and 4). The escape rate constant, k−, was derived based on the simplified equations of DNMR theory, and the apparent activation energy of escape, Ea−, was obtained based on the Arrhenius equation through temperature variation experiments. Results show that the orders of magnitude of k− for 14-s-14 and 12-s-12 are respectively 10 and 103 s−1, Ea− of 14-s-14 and 12-s-12 are respectively 54.04–73.64 and 33.42–47.09 kJ/mol. Furthermore, k− increases and Ea− decreases with the spacer length growing. In combination with the micro-polarity measurements, it was revealed that molecules of 14-s-14 and 12-s-12 have to experience conformation changes when escaping from the micelles. The two-step molecular exchange mechanism for Gemini surfactants was therefore supported. |
