Abstract
More than a 8-fold reduction in half-life can be observed for conjugat e additions of pyrrolidine to alpha,beta-unsaturated lactones in the p resence of catalytic amounts (0.1 equiv.) of bicyclic chiral guanidini um salts 1, presumably by selective hydrogen-bond stabilization of the transition state.
