15. Although we examined the 1,4- and 1,2-double nucleophilic addition using the imine protected with the TBS group, the 1,4-1,2 product was not obtained.
16. When the 1,4- and 1,2-double nucleophilic addition with the α,β-unsaturated imine bearing an electron-withdrawing group was investigated, the 1,4-addition product was obtained instead of the 1,4-1,2 adduct.

30. Calculations were carried out by using the SPARTAN pro program. 6-3IG* calculations were also carried out by using MOPAC PC SPARTAN pro, Wavefunction, Inc., 18401 Von Karman Ave., Suite 370, Irvin, CA 926.12, USA, 1999.
31. Results for the s-cis isomers are nearly the same as those for the s-trans; the difference in the method of calculation (HF/ STO-3G or PM3) has little influence on a qualitative conclusion.

33. 1H NMR spectroscopy that 1,4- and 1,2addition products 7ac, 7ad, and 7af were converted into 1,4 adducts by a retro-Strecker reaction (Table 7, Entries 3, 4, and 6). Because the adducts were not stable, the addition reactions with lb were not examined in detail.

44. The regioselectivity of the addition of nucleophiles to α,β-unsaturated aldimines has been studied previously, see ref. For examples using α,β-unsaturated aldimines for the β-lactam synthesis, see: a) I. Fleming, J. D. Kilburn, J. Chem. Soc. Perkin Trans. 1 1998, 2663-2671;

46. A control experiment was carried out by using acrolein as the substrate in place of the imine 1c. Under the conditions A in Table 8, the reaction gave the 1,4- and 1,2-addition product in 36% yield.
