18. Special care should be taken with hydroxy-substituted dihydropyridines 1a-c because of their propensity to undergo acid-catalysed cyclisation yielding the corresponding oxazolidines or oxazines. It is therefore advisable to use them immediately after preparation. For an account of this transformation with synthetic applications see: Y.-S. Wong, C. Marazano, D. Gnecco, Y. Génisson, A. Chiaroni, B.C. Das, J. Org. Chem. 1997, 62, 729-733.

29. In phenylglycinol-derived oxazolopiperidines, the chemical shift of the hemiaminal proton in the NMR spectrum appears at lower field in the isomers which bear the phenyl group at the same face. For instance, see: J. Royer, H.-P. Husson, Heterocycles 1993, 36, 1493-1496.
30. Although the indolizidine formation formally is a disfavoured process (5-endo-trig), several examples of this cyclisation are reported in the literature. For an excellent review see: L. E. Overman, D. J. Ricca in Comprehensive Organic Synthesis (Ed.: B. M. Trost), Pergamon Press, Oxford, 1991, vol. 2, chapter 4.4.
31. In MeOH solution no cyclisation took place, and the 3-iodo-2-methoxytetrahydropyridine was produced instead.
