21. This heteroannulation reaction is a general process when analogous experiments are conducted with β-unsubstituted ketone lithium enolates.
22. 13C, DEPT, HSQC, HMBC, COSY and NOESY NMR spectra were measured and in some cases selective NOE experiments.
23. Full details of the X-ray crystal-structure studies of 4a, 6c,d and 7c will be described separately.
24. Upon standing (5°C) they slowly decomposed. In some cases a clean transformation to the corresponding 1,3-diketone has been observed.
25. This reactivity has been proposed to explain the reaction of methoxy-(phenyl)carbene complex of Cr with methyl isobutyrate lithium enolate and allylmagnesium bromide; see reference 2b.
