107. The progress of this reaction could not be monitored by TLC or GC-MS, because of low boiling point of the starting allene. Thus, the reaction was stopped after 24 h without following the reaction progress.

118. The reaction was very exothermic, and resulted in the formation of a complex mixture of products. The corresponding allylic ether was not detected by GC-MS and NMR. To make the reaction conditions milder, the hydroalkoxylation was carried out under diluted condition in toluene, but the corresponding product was not detected. However, Widenhoefer and Zhang succeeded in the hydroalkoxylation of phenol (Ref. 27a).
119. The progress of this reaction could not be monitored by TLC or GC-MS, because of low boiling points of the starting allene and product. Thus, the reaction was stopped after 24 h. Isolation of the product was also very difficult for the same reason as above, and therefore the NMR yield was calculated using dibromomethane as an internal standard.
