12. The sequence leading from 9 to 10 was originally explored and developed by Mr. Scott Meehan of UCSB. The use of DMSO allowed the chemistry to be conducted at room temperature, made the process very convenient to conduct, and led to significantly improved yields. Details concerning the general procedure will be published elsewhere.

15. The dimethyl ketal analog of diazene 6 proved too labile toward conversion to the corresponding ketone and was not useful.
