32. 4 may participate in either or all steps of the sequence, as silver salts are known to catalyze propargylacyloxy [3,3]-sigmatropic shifts (see ref. [1]) as well as the cycloisomerization of allenyl ketones into furans.[11b,c]

34. Most likely, in keeping with earlier proposals (see ref. [5]), the formation of allene 9 is the rate-determining step; therefore, 9 has never been observed in the reaction mixtures.
