9. The formamide formation step was crucial and only the reported conditions were successful.
10. Every attempt to employ different leaving groups failed too.

23. Diastereoisomers of 7 have been separated and independently fully characterized in some cases (7a,b,g). Diastereoisomers of 7d,e,f could not be separated and therefore they have been characterized as a mixture, although an accurate determination of the diastereomeric ratio was always possible (see the Supporting Information).

27. Working at a lower temperature required a noticeably longer reaction time and furnished 7a with less satisfactory yield and no improvement with respect to the diastereomeric ratio.
