30. Although the kinetic experiments were performed for 2-iodothiophene (to facilitate the kinetic analysis), we believe that this scheme is general for coupling of all aromatic halides. Moreover, this picture allows a clearer insight into how the turnover-limiting step can change with structure.

In our current hypothesis, phosphine oxides stabilize palladium(0) nanoparticles and prevent precipitation of palladium black.
