abstract = "The discovery and development of new N-heterocyclic carbene-catalyzed reaction is described. Based on inspiration from nature, we have taken thiazolium-based approaches to umpolung reactivity and invented a suite of related reactions involving acyl anions, homoenolate, and enolate nucleophiles all generated under catalytic conditions.",
