31. During the preparation of this manuscript, Crabtree et al. reported compound 1a affording 2a and 3a in a ratio of 1:1.2 under microwave heating conditions and employing a phosphine ligand. In addition, the results of four intermolecular tandem decarboxylation/C-H activation couplings are given, although with low chemoselectivity and mostly low yields: Voutchkova, A.; Coplin, A.; Leadbeater, N. E.; Crabtree, R. H. Chem. Commun. 2008, 6312.
