30. 3. However, they behave identically.
31. 2).
32. Since the two isomers of 28 and 29 can be converted into 30 and 31, respectively, at different rates, the isomer ratios reported in Table 4 may not reflect the original composition of the diastereoisomeric mixture.
33. From these reactions complex mixtures of products were obtained. Apparently, these aldehydes react with two molecules of imine 1.
34. Unreacted imine 1 was recovered in high yield from these reactions.
35. From the reaction with methyl acetacetate in nitromethane a product was obtained in 26% yield as a mixture of isomers, likely deriving from reaction of C-2 and C-4 of methyl acetacetate with two molecules of 1.
36. (R)-O,O-Cyclohexylidene glyceraldehyde behaved similarly to 34 affording products analogous to 35 and 36, in 23 and 39% yield, respectively. Both were mixtures of diastereoisomers; the former was optically inactive and the latter optically active.
37. This exchange reaction is currently under active investigation in our laboratories.
38. 3 hydrolysis promoted either by the water molecules associated with the catalyst (see ref. 11), or by traces of water present in the solvents.
39. 3 co-ordinates the nitrogen of imine 1 (see ref. 10).

41. This product was a 86 : 14 mixture of trans and cis isomers both featuring an equatorial C-2 Ph substituent.
