The aldol condensation using cyclopentanone with valeraldehyde was conducted at hydrotalcites catalysis. The catalyst was obtained by calcining the hydrotalcite precursor (Mg/Al = 3:1) at 773 K. Its reaction performance was evaluated on the various molar ratios of cyclopentanone to n-valeraldehyde. A good catalytic selectivity of 90 % and a high conversion of 93 % were achieved under mild conditions.
