29. For details, see the Supporting Information. We have not been successful in obtaining any obvious decomposition products derived from 1 when the reaction was carried out in the absence of the diene.
30. The similar activity of α-oxy and α-methylene substrates (Table 3, entries 5, 6; and 10) compared to that of the α-keto substrate also supports this mechanism.
31. It is likely that a π-allyl intermediate actually exists and retards insertion of CO.
32. The regioselectivity of the Pauson-Khand reaction using alkynones or alkynoates as an alkyne component has been examined both experimentally and theoretically to reveal that insertion reaction occurs at the C-Co bond adjacent to the carbonyl group first, see: a) T.

36. This reversal of regioselectivity was also observed in the reaction of acyclic alkyne-{Co2(CO)6} complex although the yield was low.
