17. 14) We can not yet completely rule away another minor pathway for 2, involving an O-ketyl radical, cyclizing in a 6-exo-trig mode followed by a bromide β-elimination.
18. 15) In comparison, the reaction of tin hydride with the analogous vinyl acceptor shows 83% of 6-exo-trig cyclization, 5% of 7-endo-trig, and 12% of 1,5-H transfer. See : Curran, D. P.; Shen, W. J. Am. Chem. Soc. 1993, 115, 6051-6059.
