22. It is likely that these high valent metals are harder than the corresponding low valent metals and preferentially activate the aldimine part, which is more basic and harder than the alkyne moiety.
23. This product selectivity could be explained by considering higher nucleophilicity at the β-position of the zwitterionic alkenylmetal intermediate A of platinum(II) than that of platinum(IV).
