Reaksi aldol
caption: Sebuah rancangan eksperimen yang umum untuk reaksi aldol. Larutan litium diisopropilamida (LDA) dalam tetrahidrofuran (THF) (labu sebelah kanan) ditambahkan ke larutan tert -butil propionat pada labu sebelah kiri, menghasilkan enolat litium. Aldehida kemudian dapat ditambahkan untuk menginisiasi reaksi adisi aldol. Kedua labu tersebut direndam dalam penangas es kering/aseton (-78 °C). Temperatur diawasi oleh termokopel (kawat sebelah kiri)
