34. The compound 3n was characterized as the Z -isomer by an observing of the small coupling constant (J = 7.5 Hz) between two vinyl protons; see supporting information for details. The H NMR and C NMR spectroscopic data are in agreement with the previously reported literature, see:, Haak E, Eur. J. Org. Chem. 2007 2815
