91. ‡ delocalizations was found to be quite negligible, suggesting that this interaction cannot be responsible for the product selectivity in the present case. See Table S2 in the Supporting Information for further details.

96. ‡ were found to be only 0.1 kcal/mol. The corresponding difference is about 0.5 kcal/mol in the real system, implying that the Coulombic interaction indeed contributes to the predicted diastereoselectivity.
97. The concerted nature of these transition states was further confirmed by the Intrinsic Reaction Coordinate (IRC) calculations, starting from the transition state, toward the reactant and the product. It was noticed that the transition structures in general show a smooth connection to the products, without the involvement of any intermediates along the IRC trajectory. See Figure S2 in the Supporting Information for the IRC profile generated at the mPW1PW91/6-31G* level of theory.
98. (a) It appears that the bond length threshold at the mPW1PW91/6-311+G **//mPW1PW91/6-31G* level of theory is about 2.06 Å, beyond which the delocalizations involving the incipient bonds are absent.
