49. This hypothesis is based on the kinetic studies of alkenylsilylation of aldehydes in reference [9].
50. CuOtBu was prepared by adding tBuOH (1 equiv) to mesitylcopper, which was generated through a known method: T. Tsuda, K. Watanabe, K. Miyata, H. Yamamoto, T. Saegusa, Inorg. Chem. 1981, 20, 2728.
51. 11B NMR: δ = -11.6 ppm (br)) remained in the absence of TBAT; however, 2a completely disappeared in the presence of TBAT. These results suggested that the catalyst turnover step (from 8 to 4) is facilitated by the additive TBAT.
