34. The reactions were optimized for the addition of methanol but not ethanol, and consequently in these cases the yields were somewhat lower.
35. No attempt was made to further generalize the substrate tolerance although we anticipate that a reasonably wide range of inputs would be compatible with these reaction conditions.
