11. We monitored these reactions by TLC and quenched the reaction when the starting material disappeared. Therefore, the results described in Tables 1 and 2 would reflect the difference of the reactivity of the enynes to some extent.

14. The rate of the reaction may also be controlled by the steric effect. The lower yields of the products in the reaction of (E)-enynes may be explained in terms of the formation of polymeric compounds.
15. Exclusive hydrogen migration from E-position of conjugated enynes has been reported in the cross-benzannulation reaction. See: ref 6a. Formula Represented.

18. Though the C-2 carbon is most activated by the field effect of the electron-withdrawing group attached to the C-2 position (Figure 1 (a), no intermolecular C-C bond between C-2 carbons was formed in the zipper annulation.
