12. Use of propiolate trialkylester could have avoided obtaining this by-product but the large scale synthesis of these compounds was considered difficult. See for example: Baldwin, J. E.; Pritchard, G. J.; Rathmell, R. E. Synth. Commun. 2000, 30, 3833.

15. This type of compound can be obtained by olefin metathesis but the high dilution of these reaction is not compatible with the scale of reaction envisioned in this synthesis, see: Ghosh, A. K.; Cappiello, J.; Shin, D. Tetrahedron Lett. 1998, 39, 4651.

24. The reaction of 14 with oxazolidinone 4 was non-selective. Adduct 28 was obtained as a 1:1 mixture of trans-isomers.
25. The direct reduction of allylic sulfone 28 gave a mixture of alkenes.
