35. The designation cis refers to the relationship between the sulfinyl and the SLi groups.
36. In previous work from our laboratories, we have demonstrated that enethiolate alkylation proceeded with complete retention of configuration [23]. The configurations of ketene dithioacetals were assigned based on the results of NOE difference studies, which were carried out on the corresponding S-benzyl ketene dithioacetals.

39. Systematic investigation of NMR spectra shows that the chemical shifts of the proton linked to the stereogenic center and of the MeS group of the minor isomer occur downfield relative to that of the major isomer.

43. An analogous model has been proposed to explain the outcome of α-sulfinyl enolate alkylation; M. Fujita, M. Ishida, K. Manako, K. Sato, K. Ogura, Tetrahedron Lett. 1993, 34, 645-648.
