A DFT mechanistic study of the organocatalytic asymmetric reaction of aldehydes and homophthalic anhydride

The first DFT study of the cycloaddition of benzaldehyde with homophthalic anhydride under the influence of a bifunctional organocatalyst is reported. The catalyst first binds and then deprotonates the anhydride, leading to a squaramide-bound enolate, which then adds to the aldehyde with activation...
