dc.description.abstract	A method for synthesizing ionic thiourea based organocatalysts was elucidated. Two ionic organocatalysts were then successfully synthesized and fully characterized. A thiourea containing a pyrrolidinium moiety was shown to be catalytically active in a DABCO co-catalyzed Morita-Baylis-Hillman reaction between benzaldehyde and cyclohex-2-en-1-one. The pyrrolidinium tagged organocatalyst was successfully entrained and recycled using the ionic liquid N-butyl-N-methylpyrrolidiniumbis(trifluoromethane)sulfonamide,[BMPyr][N(Tf)[subscript 2]].	en_CA
