54. We also probed the collisional experiments using argon as a collision gas and using an ion-trap instrument in order to obtain data at different effective temperatures. In contrast to the exclusive dissociations of the proton-bound dimers to the protonated bases obtained in the experiments with xenon (see the SI for the spectra), the experiments with argon and in the ion trap also led to other dissociation channels, such as oxygen transfers from the N -oxide bases, so we did not include those data here.

62. Formally, the diatomic neutral alkaline-earth oxides (particularly CaO, SrO, and BaO) are the strongest oxygen superbases known, but they are not comparable with the organocatalysts studied here.
63. 2 at -40 °C gives 68% yield with 87% ee in 12 h, and only <5% yield is observed after 12 h when the reaction is conducted at-40 °C in toluene. (32)

66. The allylation of benzaldehyde with allyltrichlorosilane catalyzed by (R)- 1b (10 mol %) in PhCl (-40 °C, 1 h) without Hünig base (DIPEA) yielded only racemic product (50%). No asymmetric induction was observed.
