29. The tin/iodide exchange was surprisingly sluggish. Furthermore the iodo derivative proved to be unstable, which prompted us to find better-suited reaction conditions for this exchange reaction (vide infra).

43. Attempts to optimize the low yielding Cu-mediated Stille coupling failed, mainly due to difficulties in removing undesired homocoupling byproducts of the stannane. Reversing the stannane/iodide coupling partners did not improve the overall yield either.
