The enantioselective synthesis of alpha,alpha-disubstituted cycloalkanones has been developed using a primary amine, thiourea-based dual catalysis pathway. A range of electrophiles and ring sizes are tolerated under the reaction conditions. A possible catalytic cycle is presented to explain the reactivity.
