31. Longer reaction times appear to result in higher yields for compounds 1d and 1e, but the reaction for β-amino acids has still to be optimized. Structurally related acrylamides were found to reach complete conversion at longer reaction times: J. Streuff, K. Muñiz, J. Organomet. Chem. 2005, 690, 5973.
