27. Upon scale-up, TfOH (≃9 mol %) was added, as the reaction does not proceed otherwise, suggesting that adventitious water was more pronounced on small scale thereby generating TfOH in situ.

29. The stereochemistry in (-)-11 was established on the basis of NOEs observed between the C(39), C(40), and C(43) hydrogens.

31. Silylation at C(42) served to minimize chelation-control in the reduction, which otherwise resulted in poor selectivity.

40. This is in the 1,5-syn sense, opposite to 1,5-anti stereoinduction observed for boron aldol reactions of simple β-alkoxy ketones, suggesting in this case, the overwhelming contribution from the more remote stereocenters; see ref 9.
