114. Initial experiments were conducted with magnesium bromide etherate purchased from Aldrich. Later experiments gave varying results, perhaps because of the inconsistent quality of this reagent. The use of anhydrous magnesium bromide purchased from Strem alleviated this problem.
115. The significant byproduct from this reaction seemed to result from enolization of the cyclobutanone rather than carbonyl addition. For a study of the enolization of cyclobutanone, see: Cantlin, R. J.; Drake, J.; Nagorski, R. W. Org. Lett. 2002, 4, 2433.
