27. This decrease in substrate control can be seen in that when 8a/b were exposed to the achiral UpJohn conditions approximately 1:1 mixtures of 9a/b to 11a/b were formed.
28. 2PHAL and not an enantiomer, the diastereomeric ratios for the conversion of 8a/b to 9a/b should be slightly different than the ratio for the conversion of 8a/b to 11a/b.
