16. Since dimerization is a second-order process and isomerization is a first-order process, low concentrations maximize the [1,3]-metal shift to dimerization ratio.

19. eq = 4.0 for [2d]/[1d]) is probably related to the fact that both arene rings are conjugated with the electron-deficient carbene carbon.
20. The 20:80 equilibrium ratio of 1d to 2d was solvent-independent.
