22. The reaction showed broad solvent and Lewis acid tolerance, but the high reactivity observed with Sn(OTf)2 and 1,2-DCE led us to to use this combination for most substrates.
23. Significant aldehyde decomposition was observed when isobutyraldehyde was used in combination with slower-reacting cyclopropanes (4d, 4e, and 4 g).
