42. 3 for 24 h, however, gave 6 with a lower yield of 13% together with 4 (22%) and 5 (60%), which may be due to catalyst deactivation. Precipitation of Pd black was observed after the reaction.

45. 1H NMR spectra were obtained in the case of compounds 8-11. Their methyl peaks also coalesced by heating with the exception of those of 9.
46. The formation of palladacycle D from A may involve electrophilic attack of the palladium on the ε-carbon followed by elimination of an arene, although participation of another path via a Pd(IV) species cannot be excluded. See: (a) Dyker, G. Chem. Ber. Recl. 1997, 130, 1567. (b) Catellani, M. Synlett 2003, 298. The formation of 2-substituted naphthalenes with higher yields than those expected suggests participation of another reduction mechanism. However, the details are unclear.

48. The fact that the total yield of 3a and 4 is somewhat greater than 100% may be due to the participation of homocoupling of 1a to some extent. However, formation of homocoupling products was not observed or was negligible (less than 2%) in the other reactions.
