77. The unexpected reversal of the absolute enantioselectivity is not fully understood and further examinations are necessary. However, not only steric and electric factors, but also the repulsion between 3,3'-substituents of the BINOL skeleton and the bulky Dpp group of 1a should be involved.

86. 1H NMR spectroscopic data suggested that the N atom of the imine probably coordinated to the silicon atom of the hypervalent silicate and ultimately formed an NèSi bond (see the following ref.: Z. G. Jiao, X. M. Feng, B. Liu, F. X. Chen, G. L. Zhang, Y. Z. Jiang, Eur. J. Org. Chem. 2003, 3818). According to refs. [2c, k] the product appeared to be silylated 2 in the reaction mixture and the silyl ether was hydrolyzed during the aqueous workup or direct silica gel chromatography.
