Abstract

The utilization of micelles for controlling organic reactions has been attracting considerable attention. The micellar interface is well known as an excellent reaction field for hydrolysis.[1– 4] In spite of this fact, the reverse reaction, that is, the dehydrocondensation of a carboxylic acid and an amine, can also be accelerated at the micellar interface. In fact, we successfully showed that a remarkable rate acceleration for the reaction of aliphatic carboxylic acids (A ...
