27. The methylenated adducts 1, 2, and 13 were stable for at least a month when stored below 0°C. However, prolonged storage resulted in gradual decomposition.
28. Gas phase density functional calculations performed at the B3LYP/6-31 +G(d)//B3LYP/6-31+G(d) level support the conclusion that 1 is thermodynamically favored over 6 with a Boltzmann distribution of 98:2 based on unscaled zeropoint corrected electronic energies at 298 K (ΔE=9.78 kJ/mol). See the Supporting Information for computational details.
