45. The TLC chromatogram of the reaction mixture is very neat.
46. 2 was steadily rising.
47. 2 (1 equiv) added to a mixture of product 3a (65% de) causes no change in diastereomeric ratio after 24 h.
48. 2 was practically constant after 5, 10, 15, 30 min, 1 h and 3 h.
49. 2 seems to be an ideal promoter-Lewis acid, because of minimum toxicity, low cost, and ease of handling.
