Effect of microheterogeneity on the kinetics of oxidation of methyl linoleate in micelles

Аннотация

The kinetic results of the radical chain oxidation of methyl linoleate (LH) in micelles were given. The oxidation rate depends on the average number of substrate molecules in the micelle and is almost independent of the micelle concentration under the given conditions. The chain propagation and termination were assumed to predominantly occur inside the micelle. Possible reasons for linear chain termination during the oxidation of polyunsaturated fatty esters in microheterogeneous systems were discussed.
