Abstract
The application of iminium catalysis to the challenging Morita–Baylis–Hillman reaction on cyclopenten-2-one leads to the corresponding allylic alcohols in excellent yields. Experimental evidence shows that secondary amines act as co-catalysts activating the enone moiety towards the nucleophilic attack at the β-position by DABCO as the Lewis base catalyst, resulting in an augmented nucleophilic character towards the reaction with aldehydes.

- 20 The concomitant iminium activation of the aldehyde was excluded in our MBH reaction conditions as a consequence of model experiments with ESI-MS (see Supporting Information) and of the fact that no Mannich-type reaction was observed.
- 21 A standard approach in this way was not found in the literature: Cheng reported the use of an excess of aldehyde;14 whereas in the paper by Gruttadauria15 an excess of cyclopent-2-enone was used.

- 23 General Procedure for the Morita–Baylis–Hillman Reaction In a flask containing a solution of DABCO (0.12 mmol, 14 mg) in THF (0.5 mL) and 1 M aqueous solution of NaHCO3 (2 mL), pyrrolidine (0.12 mmol, 10 μL), cyclopent-2-enone (0.6 mmol), and the aldehyde (1.8 mmol) were successively added. The reaction was stirred at room temperature for 40 h. Then, ethyl acetate (20 mL) was added, and the organic phase was washed with 1 M HCl, sat. aqueous NaHCO3, and brine. The organic phase was dried over Na2SO4, filtered, concentrated under reduced pressure, and the crude product was purified by flash chromatography column (FCC). 2-[Hydroxy(3,4-dimethoxyphenyl)methyl]cyclopent-2-enone (13) Obtained in 37% yield. 1H NMR (400 MHz, CDCl3): δ = 6.95–6.81 (m, 4 H), 5.50 (s, 1 H), 3.87 (s, 3 H), 3.86 (s, 3 H) 2.58 (m, 2 H), 2.45 (m, 2 H). 13C NMR (50 MHz, CDCl3): δ = 209.7, 159.3, 149.1, 148.6, 147.8, 133.9, 118.6, 110.9, 109.5, 69.7, 55.9 (2 C), 35.3, 26.6.
