58. For reasons of a clearer presentation, the X-ray structure depicted is a mirror image of those deposited in the CCDC files (see Ref. [11]). Only the relative configuration was determined.
59. We assume that the reaction products all possess the depicted absolute stereochemistry, as catalyst 3 has shown to generate (R)-configured stereocenters in conjugate additions of malononitriles to α,β- unsaturated aldehydes. See references [2a] and [2f] and X-ray structure of 7 g.
