N-heterocyclic carbene (NHC) catalysis has been developed extensively for various chemical transformations over the past decade.[1, 2] In 2004, Bode et al. and Glorius et al. independently reported the pioneering NHC-catalyzed [3+ 2] annulation reaction of enals by b-addition through an a3-d3 umpolung approach.[3] Since then, a series of NHC-catalyzed [3+ n] annulation of enals has been realized for the synthesis of a range of hetero-and carbocyclic compounds.[4, 5] The NHC-catalyzed [2+ 4] annulation of enals by a addition was also established.[6]In 2012, Chi et al. reported a pioneering oxidative NHC-catalyzed [4+ 2] annulation of enals with trifluoromethyl ketones by g addition (Scheme 1 a).[7] In 2011, we reported an NHC-catalyzed [4+ 2] annulation of a, b-unsaturated acyl chlorides with activated ketones (Scheme1b).[8] We envisioned that the addition of an NHC to enals having ag leaving group may generate a dienolate intermediate, which would
