59. A part of these results has been reported in a preliminary communication: M.-H. Filippini, J. Rodriguez, J. Org. Chem. 1997, 62, 3034-3035; the structure of the cycloheplenic acid 8 has been revisited and confirmed to be as depicted in Schemes. The incorrect 1.3-cis stereochemistry previously reported for 8 is a result of the misinterpretation of an artifact on the NOESY spectrum, which indeed clearly shows the 1,3-trans stereochemistry (see discussion).

61. The enthalpies of formation, which were kindly provided by one of lhe reviewers of reference [18] and calculated with PCMODEL for both 1,3-cis and 1,3-trans isomers of 8a, corroborate our own results obtained from AM1/RHF (AMPAC) semiempirical calculations and showed a preference of 1.1-2.2 kcal in favour of the 1.3-cis-diequatorial isomer, which corresponds to an approximate 80:20 to 95:5 mixture (1,3-cis major) if thermodynamic equilibrium is achieved. See the Supporling Information.
