114. This hypothesis was supported by the following experiments: (i) The same reaction conducted in the presence of 5 mol % of TfOH provided tetrahydronaphthalene 68 in 88%yield. (ii) When enamide 2 was treated with 0.5 equiv of TMSOTf in the presence of 1 equiv of 2,6-lutidine, no reaction was observed.
