11. We are aware of consecutive on-water catalysed reactions occurring in the same flask (K. C. Nicolaou H. Xu M. Wartmann Angew. Chem., Int. Ed. 2005 44 756-761) and of neat reactions being coupled with on-water catalysis.
12. (A. El-Batta C. C. Jiang W. Zhao R. Anness A. L. Cooksy M. Bergdahl J. Org. Chem. 2007 72 5244-5259), but we are not aware of examples which involve migration of the reactants between the phases of the emulsion.

52. We discounted the notion that the aniline N-oxide was performing the epoxidation by conducting an on-water control reaction between cycloadduct 15 and N-methylmorpholine N-oxide. Compound 15 was recovered unchanged.
