title = "Facile separation catalyst system: Direct diastereoselective synthesis of (E)-α,β-unsaturated ketones catalyzed by an air-stable Lewis acidic/basic bifunctional organobismuth complex in ionic liquids",
abstract = "The catalyst system that comprises an air-stable bifunctional Lewis acidic/basic organobismuth complex and [Bmim]BF4 is highly efficient in the cross-condensation of aldehydes with ketones. Through switching the reaction from homogeneous to heterogeneous, the system shows facile separation ability and facile reusability.",
