55. It has recently been suggested that under base-free, stoichiometric conditions, the carbopalladation step could become reversible: Amatore, C.; Godin, B.; Jutand, A.; Lemaître, F. Organometallics 2007, 26, 17571761. In the absence of a base-induced forward reaction, the barrier to the reverse reaction calculated herein would not be insurmountable.
