19. Recently Takemoto and co-workers have developed a thiourea via H-bonding mediated double Michael reaction. Although it is claimed to be a cascade process, the addition of a base 1,1,3,3-tetramethylguanidine or KOH is essential for the second Michael reaction: Hoashi, Y.; Yabuta, T.; Yuan, P.; Miyabe, H.; Takemoto, Y.
