The reaction kinetics of ninhydrine (Nin) with glycine–glycine dipeptide (Gly) was studied in aqueous solution. The same reaction was studied in micellar solutions of different surfactants such as sodium dioctylsulfosuccinate (AOT) and sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS). The reaction was also studied in the L2 microemulsion phase of the three systems AOT/heptane/water, SDS/pentanol/heptane/water, CTAB/pentanol/heptane/water. Spectrophotometric measurements were perfomed at 570 nm. The data show that the reaction is first-order with respect to Nin and Gly in all cases. Values of the observed rate constants ( k  obs ) increase with increasing concentration of the surfactant in micellar media. AOT was more promotional than SDS. The reaction rate in the presence of different micelles could be explained using a pseudo-phase kinetic model. Association constants of Nin and Gly with surfactant micelles are reported. Values of  k  obs  for the reaction rates in the microemulsion phases are reported. AOT/heptane L2 microemulsion system has been clearly found as the most promotional among all the other studied systems. Association constants of Nin and Gly with surfactant in microemulsion were obtained. The rate was increased with the temperature in aqueous, micellar and microemulsion phases. The activation parameters ΔH*, ΔS* and ΔG* have also been obtained. The reaction rate in different microemulsion media is slightly increased with the change of oil (heptane &gt; hexane &gt; pentane), while co-surfactants (butanol, pentanol and hexanol) have no effect on  k   obs   values in AOT, CTAB or SDS microemulsion.
