18. The additional single-point calculations with larger basis set confirm and validate the preference for 1,4- over 1,2-addition (see Supporting Information, Table S1, for details).
19. NBO analysis was performed using 3CBOND and CHOOSE keywords in order to standardize the resonance structure representations of each TS. The descriptions are given in detail in the Supporting Information.
20. In the reaction of nucleophilic organometallics with α,α- unsaturated imines, 1,4-addition takes place much more easily than in the reaction with α,β-unsaturated carbonyl compounds, (a) Soeta, T.; Kuriyama, M.; Tomioka, K. J. Org. Chem. 2005, 70, 297-300.
