36. In contrast, when the same set of NMR measurements were conducted with Xantphos ligand, the signal for a complex that appeared after the addition of la was broad, and the significant signal for uncoordinated Xantphos remained. When i-Pr-DUPHOS was used as a ligand, two broad peaks were observed in the low magnetic field (see Supporting Information for NMR spectra).
