Hydrogen peroxide oxidation of two aqueous azo dyes, methyl orange and amaranth, catalyzed by manganese porphyrins, have been performed in an oil-in-water microemulsion based on a nonionic surfactant, C12E8. A lipophilic acid was used as cocatalyst in a variable amount. The oxidation was followed by UV spectroscopy. It was shown that the reactions performed in the microemulsion were rapid for both dyes and the ...
