35. The working hypothesis of our catalytic reaction is unclear although the α-alkylation with alcohols should consist of the hydrogen transfer process catalyzed by metal species and the aldol condensation promoted by a base (see refs 6 and 7). A reviewer pointed out that the metal hydride intermediates are prone to react with molecular oxygen. However, our catalytic system worked under the aerobic conditions, so that other methanisms might participate in this reaction. We are thankful to the reviewer for the kind and proper suggestion.
