, p. 2496 - 2498 (2007/10/02)
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.
