The authors of this paper noticed that the structures of the products in entries 1
and 4 of Table 4 were drawn wrong. To avoid additional mistakes, the authors have
repeated all the experiments in Table 4 of their Full Paper and the correct results are
presented below. Compounds 43 and 45, being same as 53, are O3-alkylated prod-
ucts. Compounds 59 and 61 are O6-alkylated products. Additionally, the corrected
Supporting Information has been provided. The authors apologize for this mistake.
