The aza-Morita-Baylis-Hillman reactions of aldimines 2 with several activated conjugated dienes were found to proceed smoothly in DMF in the presence of 3-hydroxyquinuclidine (HQD). Imines 2 reacted with 1-(p-toluenesulfonyl)-1,3-butadiene (3), methyl 2,4-pentadienoate (6), hexa-3,5-dien-2-one (7), and 1-phenylpenta-2,4-dien-1-one (8) to afford
