An NHC-catalyzed activation of acetic esters to afford enolate intermediates is disclosed. The catalytically generated triazolium enolate intermediates serve as two-carbon nucleophiles that undergo highly enantioselective reactions with enones and α,β-unsaturated imines to give α-unsubstituted δ-lac...
