Hydrophobic thiazolium and imidazolium coenzyme mimics in the presence of modified-polyethylenimine enzymemimics catalyze the benzoin condensation 2300-3300 times faster than the coenzyme mimics alone. Polycationic enzymemimics provide not only a hydrophobic binding domain for coenzyme and substrate, but also electrostatic stabilization of anionic species that arise along the reaction pathway of
