21. We have previously reported the Pd-mediated formation of tert-butyl aryl ethers, ref 11. The yields in Table 2 are higher than those published in ref 11 simply due to improved isolation techniques.

23. The yields in Tables 1-2 and 4-5 were conducted using a 2:1 ratio of ligand to catalyst but it was discovered later that a 1:1 ratio of ligand to catalyst gave similar yields by GC.
