Abstract
The condensation of aromatic aldehydes with acidic methylene compounds such as ethyl benzoylacetate, 2,4-pentanedione and dimedone proceeded efficiently in pure water in the presence of L-lysine at room temperature. Interestingly, there are two different reaction mechanisms taking place under the same green catalyst system. This provides a green and mild synthetic method for the preparation of these two classes of compounds.
