A hydrogen bond acceptor plays an important role in the catalytic cycle of organo-enamine catalysis. It can effectively influence the rate of reaction through hydrogen bonding interaction with enammonium (N-protonated enamine intermediate). Our findings are supported by both kinetic experiments and quantum chemical calculations.
