36. The suggested trivial name for this ligand acknowledges the first researcher in the group to prepare and use it.
37. The (S,S,SS) complex contains the matched combination of configurations. The corresponding complex of (S,S,RR) configuration gave a lower, reversed configuration of acetophenone reduction product (ca. 33% ee S).
38. The MODDE optimised conditions for 8 may not correspond to those for other ligands.
