Dean's Handbook of Organic Chemistry, 2nd ed.; McGraw-Hill: New York, U.S., 2004, ], spontaneous protonation of the acetate by boric acid seems unlikely. To account for the finding, we conjectured that the boric acid would stabilize the dissociated acetate by hydrogen bonding, thereby lowering its nucleophilicity for recoordination to the unsaturated Pd(II) complex.
