14. The reaction of phthalimidesulfenyl chloride with alkenes is a quantitative process leading to precursors of episulfides: M. U. Bombala, S. V. Ley, J. Chem. Soc., Perkin Trans. 1 1979, 3013-3016.
15. All attempts to obtain the acid 3b from the corresponding ethyl ester were unfruitful, whether under acidic or basic conditions.
16. As a further demonstration of the effectiveness of oxidation at sulfur in controlling the retro Diels-Alder processes, sulfides 3a and 7a and 7b are perfectly stable in refluxing THF.

19. The rate of formation of compound 12a from 10b can be increased by heating 9a in benzene at 80 °C (72 h vs. 240 h): however, under these conditions, the yield of 12a is lower (15%) and some quantities of the corresponding β-keto ester (allyl-3-oxobutanoate) can be isolated.
20. Also in this case, using a mixture of cis and trans sulfoxides, we can appreciate the quite fast reaction of cis isomer to give the final product and/or the trans sulfoxide.

26. Unfortunately, the quality of crystals of compounds 12a and 12b does not allow an X-ray analysis. Moreover, probably because of a retro Diels-Alders process and/or loss of sulfur monoxide, derivatives 12 underwent decomposition on heating without any defined melting point.
