Formation of Acrylaldehyde by Vapor-Phase Aldol Condensation II. Phosphate Catalysts

Aldol Condensation of Aldehydes and Ketones over Solid Base Catalysts

Introduction Industrially condensation reactions are of great importance in the production of a number of key compounds. These include 2-ethyl hexanol, methyl isobutyl ketone (MIBK) and Guerbet alcohols. Over 1.5 million tonnes of these chemicals are produced worldwide every year using homogeneous bases such as NaOH and Ca(OH)2. It has been estimated for these compounds that 30% of the selling ...

Organic Synthesis: Aldol Condensation Reaction

In an "aldol addition" reaction an enol or enolate of an aldehyde or ketone reacts with a second aldehyde or ketone forming a new carbon-carbon bond which makes the aldol reaction an important reaction for organic synthesis. Originally, the aldol reaction used ethanal (see below) and therefore the product contained both an aldehyde and an alcohol functional group; thus it became known as the al...
