64. The solvent effects, when using 1/BnOH as the catalyst, followed the trends in Table 1. Therefore, DME was used in subsequent reactions.

67. The absolute configuration at the 4-position is retained, though its assignment has changed due to the change in priority from oxygen to carbon.
68. Carbonylation of 2h using 5 mol% 1/BnOH for 6 h yielded 37% oxazinone 3h. Longer reaction time (24 h) and higher catalyst loading (10 mol%) left no signs of either oxazoline 2h or oxazinone 3h, but gave exclusively 2-(4-tert-butylphenyl)-4-ethyl-2-oxazalone.
