14. 3N or Hunig's base led to acylation at the phenol. Schotten-Baumann conditions also proved ineffective in completing this transformation.

28. Only silyl-based protecting groups could be successfully introduced on the phenol after the bromination reaction. Various benzyl groups were attempted, but all led to either recovered starting material or low yields.
29. 2O and deuterium failed to incorporate into the ring system.

37. This temperature is extremely important for the success of the transformation. Running the reaction at slightly higher (0 °C) or lower (-20 °C) temperatures resulted in incomplete lithiation.
38. Presumably due to the base-induced decomposition of ethyl formate, DMF (when used as the aldehyde source), or THF.

57. Inferior yields were obtained with LiOH, NaOH, or CsOH. The use of other alcohols (i.e., EtOH, 'PrOH, "BuOH) as solvent also resulted in a reduction in yield.
58. All attempts at applying the chemistry that afforded 11 to desmethyl derivatives of 59 were met with failure.
