The effect of nonionic and anionic micelles upon the stability of 3‐hydroxy‐carbofuran in basic media has been studied. The presence of micelles in the reaction medium implies a large inhibition of the basic hydrolysis of 3‐hydroxy‐carbofuran, due to the association of 3‐hydroxy‐carbofuran with the micellar core. The kinetic constants for the basic hydrolysis in these microheterogeneous media have been obtained on the basis of a micellar pseudophase model. © 2011 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
