44. These compounds were isolated from a very complex reaction mixture, which exhibited the presence of unknown decomposition products.
45. 2 complexes formed from 12 and 13 to steric effects. This property warrants a total stereoselectivity around the newly formed double bond as well as the control of the regiochemistry.
