32. At present, the following (hetero)arenes have failed to participate in the reaction: 4-(trifluoromethyl)benzonitrile, methyl 4-(trifluoromethyl)ben- zoatc, ethyl 1-methylindole-2-carboxylate, 1-methylpyrrole, 1-methyl imidazole. Unsubstituted indoles gave a mixture of 2- and 3-alkenylated products.
33. 3), catalyst at 115 °C has been reported to give the corresponding adduct as a mixture of stereoisomers in 42% yield; see ref 9f.
34. Terminal alkynes failed to give the corresponding adducts due to rapid background oligomerization of alkynes.
