17. 2OTf and (R,R)-Et-DUPHOS reverses product selectivity, but gives only a 60:40 mixture of 6a/6c.
18. In practice, we have found that separation is more easily accomplished following sulfamate ester insertion.

24. D = -28° (c = 0.67, MeOH).
25. D = +37° (c = 0.23, MeOH)). This discrepancy may be attributed to impurities in natural 1c.
