Abstract

A series of betaine-type Gemini surfactants (Cs-BGS, where C is the methylene part of the spacer, s = 2, 4, 6) were synthesized from sodium 3-chloro-2-hydroxypropanesulfonate, oleamidopropyl dimethylamine and bromoalkane. The chemical structure of the prepared compounds was confirmed by 1H NMR, 13C NMR, IR spectra, and elemental analysis. Their critical micelle formation concentrations (CMC) in the aqueous solution at 25 °C were determined by measuring the surface tension and the electrical conductivity. As the length of the spacer increased, the values of their CMC and γcmc also increased. The surface tension measurements of C2-BGS revealed that the surfactant possesses a low CMC, is very efficient in reducing the surface tension, and is very strongly adsorbed at the air-water interface. In addition, the adsorption and micellization behavior of Cs-BGS was estimated from the efficiency of surface tension reduction (pC20), minimum average surface area per surfactant molecule (Amin), and standard free energies of micellization and adsorption. These properties are significantly affected by the spacers and the adsorption is more favored than the micellization.

Kurzfassung

Eine Reihe von Gemini-Tensiden vom Betain-Typ (Cs-BGS, wobei C der Methylenteil des Spacers ist, s = 2, 4, 6) wurde aus Natrium-3-chlor-2-hydroxypropansulfonat, Oleamidopropyldimethylamin und Bromalkan synthetisiert. Die chemische Struktur der hergestellten Verbindungen wurde durch 1H-NMR, 13C-NMR, IR-Spektroskopie und Elementaranalyse bestätigt. Ihre kritischen Mizellenbildungskonzentrationen (CMC) in der wässrigen Lösung bei 25 °C wurden durch Messung der Oberflächenspannung und der elektrischen Leitfähigkeit bestimmt. Mit zunehmender Länge des Spacers nahmen ihre CMC bzw. ihre Oberflächenspannung bei der CMC (γCMC) zu. Die Messungen der Oberflächenspannung von C2-BGS ergaben, dass das Tensid eine niedrige CMC hat, sehr effizient bei der Verringerung der Oberflächenspannung ist und an der Luft-Wasser-Grenzfläche stark adsorbiert. Darüber hinaus wurde das Adsorptions- und Mizellisierungsverhalten von Cs-BGS aus der Effizienz der Verringerung der Oberflächenspannung (pC20), der minimalen durchschnittlichen Fläche pro Tensidmolekül (Amin) und den Gibbs-Energien für die Mizellisierung und die Adsorption geschätzt. Diese Eigenschaften werden signifikant von den Spacern beeinflusst und die Adsorption ist stärker begünstigt als die Mizellenbildung.
