Effect of oleic acid and sodium hydroxide on the solubilization of butanol-1 and 3-methyl butanol-1 in aqueous solution of sodium oleate

The solubilizing capacity of aqueous solutions of acid soap and neutral soap for butanol-1 and 3-methyl butanol-1 has been determined. It has been observed that the amount of butanol-1 solubilized is the same in aqueous solutions of 75% neutralized and completely neutralized oleic acid. But for 3-me...

Description
Summary:The solubilizing capacity of aqueous solutions of acid soap and neutral soap for butanol-1 and 3-methyl butanol-1 has been determined. It has been observed that the amount of butanol-1 solubilized is the same in aqueous solutions of 75% neutralized and completely neutralized oleic acid. But for 3-methyl butanol-1 neutral soap acts as a better solubilizer than the acid soap. This is due to the fact that the loci of solubilization of both free acid and the alcohol are the same. It has been concluded from the viscosity determinations for these systems that two types of micelles are formed. The first type of micelles exists below 60% butanol-1 concentration and the second type above 60%.
