The first enantioselective organocatalytic hydride reduction has been accomplished. The use of iminium catalysis has provided a new organocatalytic strategy for the enantioselective reduction of beta,beta-substituted alpha,beta-unsaturated aldehydes to generate beta-stereogenic aldehydes. The use of imidazolidinone 2 as the asymmetric
