39. The acyclic starting materials 1g-h were obtained in the same way as the cyclic starting materials 1a-e from the corresponding acyclic allylic acetates.

41. 2 atmosphere, a mixture of 2a, 6, 7, and additional unidentified by-products were formed; unfortunately the ratio between 2a, 6, and 7 could not be determined.
42. A similar isomerization occurs in the palladium(0)-catalyzed cycloisomerization reaction of enallenes. See Ref. [18].
43. The FePc was attached to a polystyrene resin (aminomethylated polystyrene (50-100 mesh)) through a sulfonamide group; for reviews on solid-phase reactions, see: a) B. A. Lorsbach, M. Kurth, Chem. Rev. 1999, 99, 1549;

45. These results are consistent with the rate-determining step being the reoxidation of the hydroquinone to its corresponding quinone.
46. Further studies on the mechanism of the reoxidation of palladium by the quinone species are in development and will be presented in a future paper; for information about the previously described mechanism, see, for example: a) H. Grennberg, A. Gogoll, J.-E. Bäckvall, Organometallics 1993, 12, 1790;
