Abstract

The Baylis–Hillman reaction of various aryl aldehydes with methyl vinyl ketone and acrylonitrile in the thermomorphic binary system (DMF/cyclohexane, 1/1, v/v) has been investigated. The phase selectively soluble alkyl-modified dendritic DMAP catalyst could be easily recycled via phase separation which was induced by cooling the temperature from 60 °C to room temperature. The corresponding Baylis–Hillman adducts were obtained in good yields and the recycled and reactivated dendritic catalyst almost gave the same results.
