37. CLi for a trisolvated (a + d = 4) monomer (n = 1); L = 68 Hz would be consistent with the 17/n relation.

49. 40 with multiplet splittings of 4.9 Hz would need an unreasonably high d value of ∼3.6 for L ≈ 55 Hz and hence possibly require another assignment.

57. Only ∼3 equiv of t-BuOMe in toluene suffices to deaggregate 8 or 12 almost completely, in contrast, two α-aryl- substituted enolates remained purely tetrameric in the "poorly coordinating" solvent t-BuOMe, according to: Streitwieser, A.; Juaristi, E.; Kim, Y.-J.; Pugh, J. K. Org. Lett. 2000, 2, 3739-3741.
58. CLi values are "much more sensitive to the degree of aggregation and number of solvent molecules in the first solvation shell than to thermal motions", according to computational results reported by: de la Lande, A.; Fressigné, C.; Gérard, H.; Maddaluno, J.; Parisel, O.
