The kinetics of alkaline hydrolysis of propyl Hexanote has been studied as a base catalyst under second order reaction at the temperature range from 20 to 40°C. The reaction rate was measured volumetrically over a range of water-propanol mixed solvent(30–70% v/v).The reaction rate was found to be increased with increasing temperature at all composition of reaction mixture. Thermodynamic parameter was calculated. The non-linear increase in free energy with mole% suggests the specific salvation taking place in reaction media. The value of iso-kinetic temperature is more than 300 which indicates strong solvent-solute interaction in reaction media.
