Abstract

An electrochemical process for effecting directed aldol condensation is described. It is carried out under neutral conditions, can tolerate a wide variety of functional groups, is highly selective for aldehydes over ketones, requires only simple apparatus, and depends for its success upon the efficient mediating effect of trivalent lanthanide ions.
