14. When ethyl trichloroacetate was added to an ethereal solution of PhMgBr (4 equiv) at 0 °C and then refluxing for 1.5 h furnished an almost quantitative amount of PhCl, see:. Kaluszyner A., and Reuter S. J. Am. Chem. Soc. 75 (1953) 5126
15. In Ref. 2, Creary reported basically identical result for the reaction of PhMgBr and ethyl acetate in ether at -78 °C, followed by warming to rt leading to the exclusive formation of the tertiary alcohol 1,1-diphenylethanol in 96% yield.

20. Although this yield should be theoretically zero, a small amount of contaminant might cause this reaction.

25. A small amount of the aldol product (ca. 5% yield) was also detected in the case of trifluorinated case. The similar situation was occurred for the related system in Ref. 7b.
