45. Recently a thiourea was synthesized by using a hydrogen-bonding-mediated double Michael reaction, and 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 to occur; see: Y. Hoashi, T. Yabuta, P. Yuan, H. Miyabe, Y. Takemoto, Tetrahedron 2006, 62, 365.
