(17) No isocyano aldol reaction of acetone was observed.
(18) One of the referees suggested the possibility of π−π interactions
between two reactants since the bicylic products with two aryl groups
were obtained with higher ee values than the alkyl-substituted ones.
This is a valid mechanistic point, and we are looking into such
interactions using a computational approach. We thank the reviewer
for providing valuable mechanistic insight.
