Abstract

(Chemical Equation Presented) Catalytic activity of nonaromatic bicyclic amidines and bicyclic isothioureas in acylation reactions was found to be remarkably dependent on the sizes of both rings. DBN and especially its thia-analogue (THTP) have been identified as highly active acylation catalysts.
