53. Unfortunately, synthesis of internal allenes by this approach was difficult.
54. Complexes 5 and 6 were prepared according to Lopez, S.; Nieto-Oberhuber, C.; Echavarren, A. M. J. Am. Chem. Soc. 2005, 127, 6178.
55. The reaction did not proceed in AcOH without using the gold catalyst.
56. Such reactions with Hg(II) reagent have already been reported; see ref 3. For the reactions of activated allenes, see refs 2 and 4b.
