47. (b) If benzaldehyde was added after the mixture of crotyltributyltin and maleic acid in acetonitrile was stirred for 3 h, no desired product was obtained. TLC indicated that crotyltributyltin was decomposed.
48. (a) The mixture of the pure compound 7 a (1.0 equiv), benzaldehyde (1.0 equiv), and trifluoroacetic acid (1.0 equiv) was stirred for 1.0 h in acetonitrile. And no 6a was produced,
49. 3 (0.5 equiv), and trifluoroacetic acid (0.5 equiv) was stirred for 1.0 h in acetonitrile.
