33. While we propose a regioselectivity switch in the same mechanistic manifold involving two-electron oxidative addition/reductive elimination steps, a possibility that the mechanism changes depending on the ligand (e.g., twoelectron vs single-electron mechanisms) cannot be excluded. For examples single-electron transfer reactivity of cobalt complexes, see ref 9.
34. Darses et al. reported a single example of regioselectivity switch for the Ru-catalyzed reaction of an aromatic ketone (see ref 3g).
