13. We thank Prof. Jia (see ref 4) for his helpful and warning comments: a violent explosion may take place during the vacuum distillation of crude 1 if the bath temperature is over 90°C or if the viscosity of the residue is too high to permit the diffusion of heat. In that case, distillation should be stopped immediately to avoid accident.

33. (a) Whatever conditions used (time, temperature, equivalent of base), 3d-f yielded mostly 4d-f compared to 5d-f.
34. (b) 5d was successfully prepared from 4d with BuLi/TMSCl (43% yield); see Supporting Information for details.

36. TBAF treatment was employed for 3e,f.
37. Base-catalyzed isomerization of alkynes has precedent in the literature: Hopf, H. Chem. Ber. 1971, 104, 3087-3095; see also ref 12.
38. n-BuLi was used for all of the reactions. s-BuLi gave the same results (products and yields).
39. Addition of the electrophile prior to addition of BuLi (internal quench) gave the same alkylation results.
40. These low yields are due to the instabilities of 6d and 8d.
