Summary (AI generated)

Ventilated ethers, metox ethers, electron deficient groups chains, and tartrate can be made. Cysteine reactions can be done at lower temperatures. Terminal alkenes work well in these reactions. This method was applied to pharmaceutical agents such as the active ingredient in Mucinex and a pois precursor. The 11 disubstituted alkenes also work well.
