title: Metal-free deprotonative functionalization of heteroaromatics using organic superbase catalyst.
abstract: Metal-free deprotonative functionalization of heteroaromatic compounds was achieved using an organic superbase catalyst; an organosilicon additive such as trimethylsilylpropyne was employed for activating the catalytic cycle of 1,2-addition to carbonyl compounds.
