14. Similar arguments, with similar conclusions, may be made if the hydrogenation reaction is assumed to proceed through the hemiketal rather than through ethyl pyruvate, or if it proceeds through both pathways simultaneously.
15. The term "preequilibrium step" refers to a reversible step appearing prior to the rate-limiting step in a reaction network. For a comprehensive review of the Curtin-Hammett principle, see Seeman, J. I., Chem. Rev. 83, 83-134 (1983).
