31. Using 1 equiv of TCCA the reaction is very slow and requires longer reaction time for completion.
32. The presence of sodium or lithium halide is essential for the oxidation process, with no reaction taking place without it. NaBr is preferred owing to its higher solubility in acetone.

37. From the stereochemistry of the recovered compounds it can be deduced that the chlorination of the double bond might arise from addition of chlorine, formed by oxidation of chloride ions, present in the solution, owing to the long reaction times.
38. 1H NMR analysis. In the absence of catalytic TEMPO, no reaction occurs.
39. The hydrolysis of TCCA seems to be catalyzed by the presence of even catalytic amounts of halide ions; in the absence of traces of sodium halides, no oxidation to carboxylic acids takes place.
40. It is noteworthy that bleach is not able to oxidize both 4-methoxybenzaldehyde and 4-methoxyphenyl acetaldeyde to the corresponding carboxylic acid, thus confirming the hypothesis that hypochlorous acid is formed in this step. In addition, TCCA is inactive in the absence of water.
