23. As defined by List in Ref. [4n]: "There are two aminocatalytic pathways. Iminium catalysis directly utilizes the higher reactivity of the iminium ion in comparison to the carbonyl species and facilitates Knoevenagel-type condensations, cyclo-and nucleophilic additions, and cleavage of s-bonds adjacent to the α-carbon. Enamine catalysis on the other hand involves catalytically generated enamine intermediates that are formed via deprotonation of an iminium ion, and react with various electrophiles or undergo pericyclic reactions."

43. Decreasing the reaction temperature results in an increase of the overall selectivity and a dramatic decrease in the conversion.
