21. 21. The N-arylation yields of acetanilide by phenyl- and tolyl-boronic acid, catalysed by triethylamine in reference 7, were reported incorrectly. The reactions yielded <5% and 59% respectively; private communication, D. Chan, DuPont Agricultural Products.
22. 22. Pyridine has since been suggested to be a superior base to triethylamine under the reaction conditions; private communication with S. Saubern, DuPont-Merck Pharmaceutical Company.
