Abstract
The principle of vinylogy states that the electronic effects of a functional group in a molecule are possibly transmitted to a distal position through interposed conjugated multiple bonds. As an emblematic case, the nucleophilic character of a π-extended enolate-type chain system may be relayed from the legitimate α-site to the vinylogous γ, ε, ..., ω remote carbon sites along the chain, provided that suitable HOMO-raising strategies are adopted to transform the unsaturated pronucleophilic precursors into the reactive polyenolate species. On the other hand, when "unnatural" carbonyl ipso-sites are activated as nucleophiles (umpolung), vinylogation extends the nucleophilic character to "unnatural" β, δ, ... remote sites. Merging the principle of vinylogy with activation modalities and concepts such as iminium ion/enamine organocatalysis, NHC-organocatalysis, cooperative organo/metal catalysis, bifunctional organocatalysis, dicyanoalkylidene activation, and organocascade reactions represents an impressive step forward for all vinylogous transformations. This review article celebrates this evolutionary progress, by collecting, comparing, and critically describing the achievements made over the nine year period 2010-2018, in the generation of vinylogous enolate-type donor substrates and their use in chemical synthesis.

Abstract
Since their discovery by Bode and Glorius in 2004, N-heterocyclic carbene catalyzed conjugate umpolung reactions of α,β-enals have been postulated to involve the formation of diamino dienols ("homoenolates") and/or azolium enolates ("enolates"), typically followed by addition to electrophiles, e.g. Michael-acceptors. In this article, we provide evidence, for the first time, for the postulated individual and specific reactivity patterns of diamino dienols (γ-C-C-bond formation) vs. azolium enolates (β-C-C-bond formation). Our study is based on the pre-formation of well defined diamino dienols and azolium enolates, and the in situ NMR monitoring of their reactivities towards enone electrophiles. Additionally, reaction intermediates were isolated and characterized, inter alia by X-ray crystallography.

Abstract
The use of NHCs for generating homoenolate species has gained widespread popularity in recent years. A number of highly stereoselective processes of NHC-homoenolates have emerged. Homoenolate reactions have also been employed as key steps in the total synthesis of a number of natural products. The use of compatible co-catalysts, improved NHC-catalyst design and the use of novel precursors for homoenolate generation are among the major developments in this area that were disclosed recently. This tutorial review organises and presents the advancements in this rapidly growing area of catalysis and in the process updates a previous account published in 2011 in this journal.
