38. Additionally, triphenylene was detected in the crude product mixture of the fluorination of phenyl triflate. Pd-catalyzed trimerization of arynes is well-known; see: Peña, D.; Escudero, S.; Pérez, D.; Guitián, E.; Castedo, L. Angew. Chem., Int. Ed. 1998, 37, 2659

40. 3, and dppf (1,1′-bis(diphenylphosphino)ferrocene), but only a catalyst based on XantPhos provided the desired product free from biaryl byproducts, which were difficult to separate from 14. For a previous example of the use of XantPhos in Negishi couplings, see: Akao, A.; Tsuritani, T.; Kii, S.; Sato, K.; Nonoyama, N.; Mase, T.; Yasuda, N. Synlett 2007, 1, 31

42. 3/ 1, or independently prepared 9a was used as the catalyst source (Supporting Information Table S2). Additionally, reactions conducted using a catalyst derived from the more reactive di-adamantyl congener of 1, AdBrettPhos (1 ′), also show evidence of deuterium incorporation in the presence of t BuOD, with slightly lower regioselectivity and higher % aryne than those carried out with 1. For the use of 1 ′ in Pd-catalyzed fluorination, see: Lee, H. G.; Milner, P. J.; Buchwald, S. L. Org. Lett. 2013, 15, 5602

44. 19F NMR. However, the yields of these reactions are significantly lower than the standard catalytic fluorination of 3, so it is likely that t BuOD adversely affects the cross-coupling process at such high concentrations. The presence of hydrogen-bond donors can greatly affect the reactivity of Pd-F complexes; for example, see: Pilon, M. C.; Grushin, V. V. Organometallics 1998, 17, 1774
