34. Basic hydrogen peroxide has been used to hydrolyse Evans' oxazolidinone: Evans, D. A.; Britton, T. C.; Ellman, J. A. Tetrahedron Lett. 1987, 28, 6141-6144. Thioesters are not as easily hydrolysed as is commonly believed. For kinetic studies see ref. 26.

45. We also noted that the diastereomeric ratio of recovered starting material 10a (Fe(acac)3-reaction; cuprate addition at -78 °C as well as of ketone 27a had changed in the presence of the Grignard reagent. Apparently Lewis-acidic magnesium compounds catalyse the opening and closing of the THP acetal which leads to the observed partial isomerisation.
