37. However, no unreacted 21 could be recovered in these reactions.
38. Titanium(IV) dione complexes are well precedented. See, for instance: Quinkert, G.; Becker, H.; Delgrosso, M.; Dambacher, G.; Bats, J. W.; Dümer, G. Tetrahedron Lett. 1993, 34, 6885-6888.

40. A possible explanation invokes a reversible [1,7]-hydrogen shift generating vinylogous acid 63. Compound 63 then acts as a catalyst to promote electrocyclization of 59.
