41. The catalytic system was stable under the experimental conditions described and could be recovered after the reaction by column chromatography.
42. A difference in reactivity was observed by using trimethylsilylacetylene in place of propargylsilane 3c: Only an adduct of hydroalkynylation was obtained as a single diastereomer in 68% yield.

49. The same reaction carried out with cyclopentene in place of norbornene derivatives did not work. No oligomers or self-coupling adducts of the phenylethyne 3a have been observed.
