11. Unfortunately, no propargylic substitution reactions of 2a with alcohols, amines, acetone, and silyl enol ethers in the presence of 1e occurred under similar reaction conditions.
12. In contrast to the reaction of 2.4-diphenyl-3-butyn-2-ol (2h) (Table 2, run 14), the reaction of 1,1,3-triphenyl-2-propyn-1-ol with "BuSH at 60 °C for 16 h afforded not the corresponding propargylic product but 1,3,3- triphenyl-2-propen-1-one in 80% yield as a sole product.
