Dynamic Ligand Exchange as a Mechanistic Probe in Pd-Catalyzed Enantioselective C-H Functionalization Reactions Using Monoprotected Amino Acid Ligands
A new tool for probing enantioselective reaction mechanisms is introduced. Monitoring the temporal change in product enantiomeric excess after addition of the opposite enantiomer of the ligand during the reaction provides a means of probing dynamic ligand exchange in enantioselective C-H iodination catalyzed by Pd with monoprotected amino acid ligands (MPAAs). This work has general potential to provide insights about the dynamics of catalyst and ligand molecularity and exchange.
