29. Preference for endo-type ("Diels-Alder"-type) transition states has been suggested for diastereoselective (non-asymmetric) vinylogous Mannich reactions; see: S. K. Burr, S. F. Martin, Org. Lett. 2000, 2, 3445-3447.
30. The C=N bond of chiral ligands do not undergo addition likely because of steric hinderance provided by the amino acid substituent.
31. Pre-association of the amide moiety with the siloxyfuran is also feasible; such an interaction would enhance enolsilane nucleophilicity and facilitate delivery; see: a) S. E. Denmark, G. L. Beutner, T. Wynn, M. D. Eastgate, J. Am. Chem. Soc. 2005, 127, 3774-3789, and references therein;
