26. We have thoroughly explored optimal reaction conditions using various solvents, tertiary amines, time and temperature, and equivalents of the reagents. However, an improved result over a 47% yield could not be obtained. Details of these examinations are described in Supporting Information.
27. Besides the desired olefin products 2, unreacted imines were detected in the reaction mixture, which were hydrolyzed during a workup process.

34. Considering harmfulness of benzene, the reaction of 5a was investigated using toluene as an alternative solvent, providing a comparable result (110°C, 3 h, 72% yield) with the case of benzene.
35. We suppose that the mechanism of the cyclization reaction (formation of 8) follows the same pathway as depicted in Scheme 2 in an intramolecular fashion because the same reaction in the presence of CD3-OD (this deuterium ought to be exchanged for the phenolic hydrogen of 5) gave the product 6 in which the deuterium was incorporated at the 2-position (as well as the methoxy hydrogens).
