26. (E)-α,β-Unsaturated amides 1 were prepared following the methods described in: (a) Concellón, J. M.; Pérez-Andrés, J. A.; Rodríguez-Solla, H. Chem. Eur. J. 2001, 7, 3062-3068.

28. In the case of compound 3b although dr = 95/5 the reaction was also completely stereoselective since the E/Z ratio of the starting α,β- unsaturated amide was 95/5.

30. (Z)-N,N-Dimethyloct-2-enamide was obtained from the catalytic Lindlar's hydrogenation of N,N-dimethyloct-2-inamide.
31. The use of diamines, TMEDA or TEEDA, was necessary to carry out the silylcyclopropanation described in reference 6.
