27. On the basis of our previous observations during the synthesis of 8 (ref 8), we expected the reaction of 7 and 11 to proceed with good regiocontrol. The observed 1:1 regioselectivity in the formation of 10a and 10b may be the result of a fast cyclization of organopalladium intermediates i and ii (eq 1). If the analogous cyclization of organopalladium intermediates iii or iv is slow, a fast equilibration via de-carbopalkdation may be favorable, which could have led to improved regioselectivity in the formation of 8.
