25. Frisch, M et al. Gaussian 98, revision A.11.4; Gaussian, Inc: Pittsburgh, PA, 2001. Calculations used the BP86 functional. Pd was described using the Stuttgart RECPs and the associated basis sets; 6-31G** basis sets were used for C, N, O, and H atoms. Quoted energies include a correction for zero-point energies. See Supporting Information for full details.
26. While the C-H bond activation step is rate-determining in chloroform, the kinetics are very different in acetic acid. Our calculations should, therefore, only be taken to represent the situation in low polarity media.
27. Full details, including all stationary points, are illustrated in Figures S1 and S2 in the Supporting Information.
