55. Since both of the carbamate groups in the monoamidated products should be able to direct further amidation to the arene ring, formation of diamidation products should be possible. However, we did not observe formation of any diamidation products under our experimental conditions. Probably, the monoamidated products are less reactive for further palladation than the substrate anilides. Moreover, employing only 1.2 equiv of the N-nosyloxycarbamate would limit the chance for diamidation reactions.

61. Ascorbic acid was found to suppress the amidation reaction in a dose-dependent manner; see Supporting Information for details. Yet, ascorbic acid may affect the catalytic turnovers by its reducing properties.
