Fig. 2 and 3 in this article are incorrectly displayed. They should appear as below:

Fig. 2 TEM images of SBA–LDH with electron beam parallel and perpendicular to the pore channels.

Fig. 3 Conversions as a function of time for the reaction of acetone self-condensation at 273 K.

In addition, there is an error in the caption for Scheme 1, which should read: "Schematic illustration of synthetic pathways for mesopore confined LDH base catalyst. (a) SBA-15 pre-modified with Si–CH3 on outer surface; (b) nitrate loaded in mesopore; (c) oxide incorporated composites; (d) formation of LDH within the pore channels."


The Royal Society of Chemistry apologises for these errors and any consequent inconvenience to authors and readers.
