27. During the 15th European Symposium of Organic Chemistry (Dublin, July 2007), we became aware of preliminary direct arylation studies on a protected and unprotected adenosine by the Hocek group in Prague. This group later reported these studies as a communication (available online 25th October 2007), see:. Čerňa I., Pohl R., and Hocek M. Chem. Commun. (2007) 4729

64. A subtle ligand substituent effect on pyridine has also been observed in Pd(II) catalysed aerobic oxidative annulations of indoles. It is believed that certain electron-deficient pyridines make the Pd(II) catalyst more electrophilic and reactive, see:
