64. According to the IUPAC rules the products 2, 33 and 38 should be named as isoquinolines rather than quinolizidines (hydroquinolizines). For clarity this was not followed.
65. According to the IUPAC rules the products 4 should be named as isoindoles rather than indolizidines (hydroindolizines). For clarity this was not followed.
