9. 2 C-H bonds is often competitive; preference for aryl or benzylic activation is highly system dependent (see refs 2c; 6a: Adams, C. S.; Legzdins, P.; Tran, E. Organometallics, 2002, 21, 1474).
10. We presume that secondary products, if formed, are less thermodynamically stable than primary products and are thus not observed.
11. Selectivities fall qualitatively in line with those observed for both early (see ref 2c-e) and late metal systems: (a) Jones, W. D.; Feher, F. J. Acc. Chem. Res. 1989, 22, 91.
