20. 11. Further evidence against an alkyne carbometallation mechanism is provided by a comparison of cyclizations and intermolecular couplings (see reference 2d, eqn 6). However, we cannot rule out the possibility that a chelation effect involving coordination of both the enone and the proximal alkyne to nickel could direct alkyne carbometallation to produce 15 and 16.

39. 21. The [2+2+2] reactions in the absence of organozinc proceeded in comparable yield both in the presence and absence of triphenylphosphine. However, inseparable byproducts resulting from double bond isomerization of 28 were obtained in the phosphine-promoted reaction.
