  • Department of Chemistry, Ranchi University, Ranchi-834 008 Manuscript received 9 January 1997, revised 16 March 1998, accepted 23 March 1998 Alkaline hydrolysis of methyl nicotinate has been studied in water-ethane-1,2-diol solvent system from compositions 0 to 50% (v/v) of etbane-1,2-diol at temperatures 20, 25,30 and 35°. The rates decrease with the increasing content of organic co-solvent at all the temperatures. The isocomposition activation energy and the thermodynamic activation parameters have been evaluated which show interesting behaviour with variations in the solvent composition.
