Highly enantio- and chemo-selective 1,4-conjugate addition process of 5H-thiazol-4-ones with maleimides or 1,4-naphthoquinones, and 5H-oxazol-4-ones with maleimides were performed under a dipeptide-based tertiary amine (DP-UAA) catalyst. A series of valuable N,S- and N,O-containing heterocyclic compounds with excellent enantio- and disastereo-selectivities (up to >99% ee, > 20:1 dr) were attained.
