5-(Pyrrolidin-2-yl)tetrazole-catalyzed aldol and mannich reactions: acceleration and lower catalyst loading in a continuous-flow reactor.
Continuous organocatalysis: Fast aldol and Mannich reactions require less catalyst when conducted in a microreactor. A proline tetrazole derivative (5-10 mol %) catalyzes asymmetric aldol reactions between various aromatic aldehydes and ketones in microreactor at 60 degrees C with reaction times ranging from 10 to 30 min.
