32. Efficient mixing of CsOH on a manufacturing scale is difficult because of its density. Also, waste disposal is more than 500-times more expensive when the waste contains cesium.
33. Ketone 4-a is a bench-stable crystalline solid. See the Supporting Information for a preparative procedure.
34. The ratios obtained by Kobayashi et al. for conjugate addition versus [3+2] cycloaddition were heavily dependent upon the structure of the substrate. To favor conjugate addition, the structure of 5 was modified (see Ref. [4i]), but for our purposes this is prohibitively expensive, and still requires 10 mol-% of catalyst to proceed efficiently.
