32. Compound 3bk was liable to trans-acetalization and oxidation; see Section 5.
33. NMR spectra of lactols 5 showed no signals attributable to open-chain γ-hydroxyaldehydes and the equilibrium in Scheme 3 was almost completely shifted to the hemiacetalic form.
34. 2-Alkyl-2-dioxolanyl radicals can also undergo ring opening, just as the corresponding cations formed by electron transfer to the sensitiser. As a result small amounts of the corresponding ethyl esters and, respectively, of the hydroxyethyl esters were observed, see Ref. 12b.
35. When hydrogen abstraction is inefficient, radical-radical coupling between the adduct radical and the ketyl radical from the sensitiser occurred to some extent (small amount of compounds of such structure were detected by NMR as impurities of the alkylated products in some fractions from column chromatography).
36. Under suitable irradiation conditions the aldehydic excited group is able to abstract hydrogen from 1,3-dioxolanes in an intramolecular fashion. See: Freeman-Cook K.D., Halcomb R.L. Tetrahedron Lett. 37:1996;4883.
