p-Nitrophenyl ester of D-phenylalanine hydrogen bromide was hydrolyzed much faster than that of the corresponding L-isomer in the micelles formed with sugar-derived surfactants such as N-dodecylmaltobionamide. The enantioselectivity was largely affected by the alkyl chain length as well as the structure of the sugar part of the surfactant.
