70. The most important side reaction observed in the Pd-catalyzed cyclodehydrohalogenation of 8a and 8b is hydrodehalogenation. The formation of 2-methyl-5-phenoxypyridazin-3(2H)-one has been proven by NMR analysis of the column chromatography fractions that revealed the presence of a compound with a molecular mass of 202.
71. 2 or Pd(BINAP) catalyst is ArI>ArBr≫ArCl. However, the presence of electron withdrawing groups on, as well as the incorporation of nitrogen atoms in the benzene ring of the aryl chloride makes oxidative addition of aryl chlorides to palladium catalysts with traditional triarylphosphane ligands possible: (a) Fitton P., Rick E.A. J. Organomet. Chem. 28:1971;287-291.

78. It is often considered that the Pd-catalyzed cyclodehydrohalogenation involving C-H bond activation, occurs via the intramolecular electrophilic attack of the oxidative addition complex on the π system: (a) See Ref. 8.
79. Echavarren A.M., Gómez-Lor B., González J.J., de Frutos Ó. Synlett. 2003;585-597. If one accepts this model the Pd-catalyzed cyclodehydrohalogenation involving the cleavage of a vinylic C-H bond (e.g., in 10 ) should occur more readily than when an aromatic C-H bond is involved (e.g., in 8 ) since the mechanistic pathway does not include loss of aromaticity. This is in accordance with the results we obtained when comparing the Pd-catalyzed cyclization of 8a with 10.

85. 3 were used 40% of 5-[(2-bromophenyl)amino]-2-methylpyridazin-3(2H)-one ( 15 ) and a recovery of 52% of 5-iodo-2-methylpyridazin-3(2H)-one ( 1 ) were obtained after refluxing for 3 h, whereas the use of 1 equiv. of the same base under the same reaction conditions gave a yield of 30% of 15 and a recovery of 63% of 1 in the same reaction time.
86. A similar selective behaviour has recently been reported by us for the Suzuki reaction of 11 with 2-bromophenylboronic acid. In this case the conjugate base of 2-bromophenylboronic acid probably sterically and electronically retards oxidative addition of the ortho C-Br bond to the Pd(0) catalyst: see Ref. 2e. Interestingly, also Armin de Meijere's group reported selectivity when using 2-bromophenylboronic acid in the Suzuki cross-coupling reaction with 1-bromonaphthalene: Wegner H.A., Scott L.T., de Meijere A. J. Org. Chem. 68:2003;883-887.
