20. (a) An extra equivalent of ligand was added to reactions at temperatures above 80°C to help stability. No attempt has been made to minimize the quantity of additional ligand. (b) Attempts to use primary aliphatic amines or amides in cross-coupling reactions with mesylates have been unsuccessful because of sulfonyl transfer side reactions.
