Mixtures of a cationic surfactant containing an activated amide function and the anionic surfactant hexadecanoate ion in aqueous buffer at pH 8 and 25.0 °C produce anion–cation aggregates rather than the “fast amide cleavage under mild conditions” reported by Menger et al. last year in Angewandte Chemie .
