Abstract

Chitosan hydrogel is efficiently utilized as an organocatalyst for aldol and Knoevenagel reactions, providing the products in high yields with a high chemoselectivity under biphasic conditions. The catalyst was recovered by simple filtration and reused several times without significant loss of activity.
