35. In the 1H NMR spectra of dearomatized benzoylphloroglucinol derivatives such as 3, the enolic hydrogen appears in the far downfield region (16-18 ppm) suggesting complete enolization. The compound exists as a mixture of two enol tautomers. See ref 1a,d for a discussion on the mechanistic details of Mn(III)-based oxidations of 1,3-dicarbonyl compounds.

45. These products appear to result from multiple cyclization modes onto the tetrasubstituted olefin (O vs C, 6-endo vs 5-exo).
46. Attempts to use non-allylic bromides led to low reactivity mainly resulting in alkylation of the phenolic oxygens. The alkyl triflate was prepared using a modified literature procedure: Bashore, C. G.; Vetelino, M. G.; Wirtz, M. C.; Brooks, P. R.; Frost, H. N.; McDermott, R. E.; Whritenour, D. C.; Ragan, J.

47. Enones 25, 26, and 28 were isolated as a single (Z) isomer (1H NMR).
