bicyclic guanidine was found to be an excellent catalyst for enantioselectiveMichaelreactions. It was observed that additives such as non-chiral amines could accelerate the rate of reaction. When triethylamine (Et3N) was as used as the solvent, the reactionrate can be increased up to 1000 times without compromising the enantioselectivity. Michael acceptors such as 2-cyclopenten-1-one 2 and N-alkylmaleimides
