36. The use of excess base brought about lower yields and increased byproducts including protected dehydroalanine and dibenzyl sulfoxides, when the alkylation was performed with a benzyl bromide.
37. To confirm the sulfoxides were kinetic products arising directly from alkylation chemistry, selected sulfoxides were thermolyzed to determine if the observed dr value were caused by (a) selective thermal breakdown of one diasteromer or (b) thermal conversion of one isomer to the other. No evidence in support of either of these processes was observed. See: Rich, D. H.; Tam, J. P. J. Org. Chem. 1977, 42, 3815-3820.
