36. The ratio of 9a(D)/4a(D) (74%/8%) increases because deuteride is transfered less easily than hydride, and thus, the intramolecular process is favored over the intermolecular one.

38. Reduction of a vinyl radical bearing a t-Bu group has been observed: Journet, M.; Malacria, M. Tetrahedron Lett. 1992, 33, 1893-1896.
39. Presumably, the steric effects developed by the bulky tert-butyl and isopropyl groups prevents the usual reduction from occurring. The formation of the heterodiquinene 8c (which has been isolated and characterized) could be explained by an initial 5-endo-trig process followed by a rare β-hydrogen atom abstraction. One of the referees suggested an alternative explanation involving an oxidation of the radical 7 to the corresponding cation which then suffers proton loss.
40. The 6-endo-dig cyclization is consistent with the Thorpe-Ingold effect of the bulky diisopropyl group. With a dimethyl group, this process is not observed. See: Magnol, E.; Malacria, M Tetrahedron Lett. 1986, 27, 2255-2256. equation presented
41. A minor quantity of the β-silyl radical incorporated deuterium proving that a 1,5-H transfer is effectively involved in the formation of 6d.
