36. A six-membered palladacycle somewhat related to 11 and generated by cyclometallation of 2-(diphenylphosphino)-1,1′-binaphthyl is known; however, see: Huang, X.-J.; Mo, D.-L.; Ding, C.-H.; Hou, X.-K. Synlett 2011, 943-946
37. Simple pyridines and quinolines are often used as directing groups for palladation but are seldom metalated themselves (e.g., see ref 2a). For a recent review of cyclopalladation, see: Dupont, J.; Consorti, C. S.; Spencer, J. Chem. Rev. 2005, 105, 2527-2571
38. Enantioselective Pd(II)-catalyzed C-H functionalization reactions are in their infancy; for a particularly significant example by Yu and co-workers, see ref 4b. Other types of Pd(II)-catalyzed enantioselective transformations have been reported, for an example, see: Jensen, D. R.; Pugsley, J. S.; Sigman, M. S. J. Am. Chem. Soc. 2001, 123, 7475-7476
