46. It is of note that ortho -substitution on the aryl ring retards the Pd-catalyzed C-H insertion at the ortho -position; see: Boele, M. D. K.; van Strijdonck, G. P. F.; de Vries, A. H. M.; Kamer, P. C. J.; de Vries, J. G.; van Leeuwen, P. W. N. M. J. Am. Chem. Soc. 2002, 124, 1586

58. A Pd(II) intermediate cannot be ruled out at this stage, since the oxidative addition, carbopalladation of an aldehyde, and β-hydride elimination are precedented transformations for Pd(II) species.
