63. A series of 2D EXSY spectra were acquired by using the phase-sensitive NOESY pulse sequence to establish reasonable mixing times. A mixing time of 1 s at T = 258 K was subsequently chosen for all 2D EXSY experiments. The rate constants for chemical exchange were calculated from the ratio of diagonal and exchange cross peaks as described in: Perrin, C. L.; Dwyer, T. G. Chem. Rev. 1990, 90, 935

72. The atropisomerization barrier of 97.9 kJ/mol at 25 °C (see Table 2) corresponds to an isomerization half-life (conversion of a pure atropisomer (Z)-(P)- 4f to a (P):(M)=75:25 mixture) of 4.3 h. In fact, the actual (P)(M) isomerization rate is higher because the backward (M)(P) transformation is suppressed due to the rapid reduction of the more reactive atropisomer (Z)-(M)- 4f immediate upon forming.
