22. These energies are corrected with thermal enthalpy at -78 °C.
23. TS - rs. Both structures (transition state and the starting ketone) were optimized at the same level of calculation method and basis set (B3LYP/6-31+G(d,p)).
24. GS denote the NBO bond populations for the antiperiplanar bond in the transition state and in the ground state structures, respectively.
