37. 2H transfers are reminiscent of a palladium-catalyzed diene cycloisomerization mediated by a Pd(H) species that has been generated in situ. Such reactions commonly display induction periods and pseudo zero-order substrate dependency: a) K. L. Bray, I. J. S. Fairlamb, J. P. H. Charmant, G. C. Lloyd-Jones, Chem. Eur. J. 2001, 7, 4205-4215;

44. TfOH may also generate the active catalyst 10 from 4, for example by demethylative lactonization (see reference [12]) then β-hydride elimination at C6. Despite careful GCMS/NMR analysis, we were unable to identify any coproducts from this process.
