The proline-histidine dipeptide laid the groundwork for the construction of three new ion-tagged organocatalysts, utilizing the imidazole moiety of histidine for generating quaternary species. A comparative investigation of the catalysts in the enamine-mediated direct asymmetric aldol reaction revealed contrasting features, particularly under aqueous conditions. The best-performing catalyst was also used for preparing derivatives and achieving desymmetrization.
