Phenolic L-prolinamide was allowed to participate in enzymatic polymerization with horseradish peroxidase as the catalyst, generating immobilized L-prolinamide. The catalytic performance of the resultant polymer-supported L-prolinamide for direct asymmetric aldol reaction between aromatic aldehyde and cyclohexanone was studied. The results show that as prepared L-prolinamide can catalyze the aldol reaction at room temperature in the presence of H2O. Relevant aldol addition products are obtained with good yields (up to 91%), high diastereoselectivities (up to 6:94 dr), and medium enantioselectivities (up to 87% ee). Moreover, the title polymer-supported catalyst can be recovered and reused for at least five cycles while the activity remains almost unchanged.
