33. Friedel-Craft-type cyclization on the activated ortho positions is intuitively reasonable, though we have no proof at this time.

40. Control experiments showed that 1b catalyzes the isomerization of 4,4-dimethylcyclohexene to 3,3-dimethylcyclohexene.
41. Pt catalysts 1a and 1b are completely selective for 3 and 5, respectively. No traces of cyclohexenes were detected (GC) in the crude cyclopropane reaction mixtures, and vice versa.
