39. While 1 exists as a slowly interconverting mixture of amide rotamers, 5a exists exclusively in the more active and enantioselective (Z)-rotameric form. This constraint has been demonstrated to lead to improved activity and enantioselectivity in the alkylation of α-chloroisochroman. See: Lehnherr, D.; Ford, D. D.; Bendelsmith, A. J.; Kennedy, C.
