The present work is aimed at studying the interaction between copper-glycyltyrosine [(Cu(II)-Gly-Tyr)](+) and ninhydrin in water and in micelles formed by cetyltrimethylammonium bromide (CTAB) using spectrophometric measurements at 80 degrees C and pH 5.0. The order of reaction remains the same in the two systems, that is, first-and fractional-order kinetics with respect to [Cu(II)-Gly-Tyr](+) and [ninhydrin], respectively, in the excess of ninhydrin over [Cu(II)-Gly-Tyr](+). It was observed that the product formed is same in both the media. The reaction is catalyzed by CTAB, and the maximum rate enhancement is about three fold. Quantitative kinetic analysis of k psi-[CTAB] data was explained in terms of pseudo-phase of the micelles (assuming the association/incorporation of both the reactants at the micellar surface).
