The CN carbon atoms of 2a-q were deshielded (116.9-119.7 ppm) than those of 2r and 2s (113.2 and 112.0 ppm, respectively)

37. To detect the intermediate, such as, C′, we carried out the NMR experiments using piperidine-derived acrylamide with TFAA and DMF. However, we could not observe the cation species, such as C′ on the NMR time scale, see the Supplementary data.
