37. The substrates in entries 11, 13, and 24 under the thermal conditions form azomethine ylides, and products from these intermediates are observed. In the reactions of entries 19 and 20, the pyrroles can be isolated from the retro-Diels - Alder reaction of the products.
38. Unfortunately, when compound 1 was synthesized asymmetrically, chirality was not transferred to the product. Compound 1 was transesterified with a chiral alcohol in order to assess enantiomeric purity of the starting material and product. The product was found not to epimerize under the given reaction conditions.
