Titanium(III) chloride was found to be an effective catalyst for the imino Diels-Alder reaction between an imine (generated in situ) and an activated alkene in acetonitrile at ambient temperature. The reaction proceeds smoothly to afford the corresponding adduct as a mixture of chromatographically separable cis- and trans isomers in moderate to good yields.
