Abstract
Anhydrous RuCl3, catalyses the efficient cross aldol condensations of different ketones with various aromatic aldehydes in sealed tube under solvent free conditions without the occurrence of any self condensati ons. Regioselective self condensation reaction of some ketones and ald ehydes are also described. The catalytic effect of Ru(III) is shown by performing similar reactions under thermal conditions without catalys t. (C) 1998 Published by Elsevier Science Ltd. All rights reserved.
