description

Key feature of the title protocol is the use of a cis-ion-tagged proline dissolved in a liquid film on a multilayered ionic liquid covalently bound to silica. The resulting catalytically active material is soaked in cyclohexanone and water to form a semi-transparent gel which then reacts with the aldehyde.
