Functional Micelles and Vesicles as Organic Reagents

Abstract

We discuss the relationship between the molecular structures of various iodosocarboxylates and their catalytic potency in the cleavages of toxic phosphates and simulants. Iodosobenzoate catalysts were successfully and usefully immobilized on silica, titania, nylon, and resin supports. Vesicles and liposomes were utilized as chemical microreactors. We also studied the dynamic stability of lipids in surface differentiated bilayer liposomes, relating the observed behavior to the molecular structure of the lipids. Decontamination, iodosobenzoates, iodosocarboxylates, phosphates, vesicles, liposomes, kinetics, dynamics, phosphocholines, surfactants, micelles.
