70. The crude reaction mixture from cis-19 was analyzed within the first 5 s, and the ratio of unreacted cis-19/20 was 2:1. The reaction of trans 19 was too fast and completed within 5 s. Thus, it was inconclusive in assessing the integrity of olefin stereochemistry in this case. We are again grateful for the reviewers insightful suggestions.
