We discovered that the expected advantages of micellar catalysis were unfounded, leading us to reevaluate its efficacy. Contrary to our initial beliefs, unusual Schotten–Baumann conditions proved to be superior in both efficiency and practicality. This shift in understanding not only challenges the current enthusiasm for micellar catalysis but also reaffirms the value of established methodologies, emphasizing the necessity of critical scrutiny in the advancement of sustainable chemistry
