57. Nitrile imines also react with (E)-γ-oxygenated-α,β-unsaturated esters and enones: The regioselectivity is generally high, but syn selectivity only modest (≤ 70:30). The results, however, fit perfectly within the framework of the "outside alkoxy" theory: L. Grubert, G. Galley, M. Pätzel, Tetrahedron: Asymmetry 1996, 7, 1137-1148.
