23. The surprising (see I. Fleming, Frontier Orbitals and Organic Chemical Reactions, Wiley, New York, 1976, pp. 45-46) lack of regioselectivity in the reactions of these extended enolates is possibly due to their bicyclic nature. For comparable examples of extended amide enolates, see R. K. Haynes, S. M. Starling and S. C. Vonwiller, J. Org. Chem., 1995, 60, 4690; M. Yamaguchi, M. Hamada, H. Nakashima and T.
