Abstract
Reusable polymer-bound lithium dialkylamides were employed in crossed aldol reaction of various carbonyl compounds with aldehydes to afford the corresponding β-hydroxycarbonyl compounds. The introduction of spacer chains between the base moiety and the polystyrene backbone increased the yields of the desired aldol adducts.
