Judicious choice of precipitation conditions can lead to self-sorting of equilibrating mixtures of aromatic aldehydes and substituted anilines into a handful of imine products. The selectivity of this process is caused by the solubility differences among possible imines in the EtOH-H(2)O solvent mixtures used in precipitation.

Dynamic covalent polymers of different topology have been synthesized from an aromatic dialdehyde and α,ω-dinitroalkanes via the nitroaldol reaction. All dinitroalkanes yielded dynamers with the dialdehyde, where the length of the dinitroalkane chain played a vital role in determining the structure of the final products. For longer dinitroalkanes, linear dynamers were produced, where the degree of polymerization reached a plateau at higher feed concentrations.
