Biopolymers are playing an important role in today’s medical science. Organocatalysts, due to their non-toxic property, are attracting more and more attention. The effectiveness of two recently reported organocatalysts, triazabicyclodecene (TBD) and 1,3-bis-(2,4,6-trimethylphenyl) imidazole-2-yliden...
