16. Remarkably, direct ionization in the absence of water did not give 4 cleanly, even after prolonged reaction times or heating.

18. IR spectroscopy has been a major tool for studying hydrogen bonding of organic alkyne derivatives (e.g., refs 14a-e), but the high reactivity of 5a thus far has precluded observing its IR spectrum. (a) Steiner, T. Adv. Mol. Struct. Res. 1998, 4, 43-77.

24. CH increase from 5c to 5a, and ascribe the shift to the Fermi contact contribution. This contribution increases with the s-character of the CH bonding MO, as the CCH bond angle becomes more linear (5c, 154°; 5a, 162°) with hydrogen bonding. These effects are a subject of future study.
25. NH was not observed, but this could be expected to be less than 1 Hz.

27. CN gave values of -3.4 and -6.7 Hz, averaging to -5 Hz. Comparison of the other experimentally determined NMR coupling constants shown in Scheme 2 with calculated values shows that the latter are consistently about 20% too high.
