  • They seem to react through the O-deprotonated hydroxyimine because the diastereomeric ratio of these 1,3-oxazolidines does not affect the stereochemical outcome of the reaction. See ref.1c for a detailed discussion.

In Et2O the Schlenk equilibrium is moved away from the more basic R2Mg. A similar shift in the equilibrium may also occur with the added MgBr2. See: b) W.
