26. The structures, including the absolute (and where appropriate, relative) configurations, of 5 a, 5 j, and 5 k were determined by single-crystal X-ray diffraction. Low-temperature single-crystal diffraction data were collected by using an Oxford Diffraction (Agilent) SuperNova, solved by using SIR92, and refined within the CRYSTALS suite. The Flack x parameter refined to 0.007(10), -0.002(12), and 0.00(1) for 5 a, 5 j, and 5 k, respectively. CCDC 965014, 965015, and 965016 contain the supplementary crystallographic data for this paper.

40. Although the exact role of the carbonate leaving group in this catalytic process is unclear, with recent calculations suggesting an outer-sphere- coordination role (, J. O. C. Jiménez-Halla, M. Kalek, J. Stawinski, F. Himo, Chem. Eur. J. 2012, 18, 12424), it (or methoxide) may at some point be involved in a proton-transfer step from the nucleophile to the allene.
