MONTMORILLONITE CLAY CATALYSIS .6. SYNTHESIS OF TRIARYLMETHANES VIA BAEYER CONDENSATION OF AROMATIC ALDEHYDES WITH N,N-DIMETHYLANILINE CATALYSED BY MONTMORILLONITE K-10

摘要

Triarylmethanes are synthesized in good to excellent yield via Baeyer condensation of aromatic aldehydes with N,N-dimethylaniline catalysed by montmorillonite K 10 at 100 degrees C in the absence of solvent. [References: 24]
