A laccase‐lipase cocatalytic system was used to catalyze the domino reaction between catechols and nucleophilic reagents including 1,3‐dicarbonyl compounds and aromatic amines in aqueous medium at room temperature. Lipase acted as a catalyst for Michael addition step, and also enhanced the overall yield of the final products. (© Wiley‐VCH Verlag GmbH & Co. KGaA, 69451 Weinheim, Germany, 2009)
