The kinetic studies for copper-catalyzed homocoupling of some phenylboronic acids have been successfully carried out in an aqueous micellar medium under environmentally benign conditions (water as a solvent, micelle to help solubilize hydrophobic adducts). In this study cetyl trimethyl ammonium bromide (CTAB ) is used as a surfactant to produce micelle. Different copper salts and copper complexes were used as catalysts to perform the reaction under the mild condition at a temperature range (40--Vis spectrophotometer and the absorbances were measured at maximum wavelengths for the biphenyl production of each of five selected phenylboronic acids. The observed rate constants (k obs ) were calculated using a pseudo-first-order equation and unsubstituted phenylboronic acid was selected for optimization processes. The experimental results showed good to excellent curve fit (R 2 =0.9967-0.9998) to the pseudo-first-order equation and origin software was used for this purpose. Among all copper catalysts, the observed rate constant (k obs ) for cupric acetate (Cu(OAc) 2 )is much higher than others, (k obs =0.1605 min -1 ), while CuCl 2. 2H 2 O has a minimum observed rate constant, k obs =0.0216min -1 . The two copper complexes [Cu(4-mba) 2 (tmeda)], and 2 (H 2 O) 2 (tmeda)] (4-mbaH = 4-methylbenzoic acid, 3-mbaH = 3-methylbenzoic acid, tmeda = tetramethylethyleneamine) phenylboronic acid is used as reactant the value of k obs is (0.0176, 0.0343 min -1 ) respectively, while using p-tolylboronic acid (1b) as reactant the value of k obs is (0.0173, 0.0147 min -1 ) respectively.
