Arylic C–X Bond Activation by Palladium Catalysts: Activation Strain Analyses of Reactivity Trends

Abstract We have quantum chemically explored arylic carbon–substituent bond activation via oxidative insertion of a palladium catalyst in C6H5X + PdLn model systems (X = H, Cl, CH3; Ln = no ligand, PH3, (PH3)2, PH2C2H4PH2) using relativistic density functional theory at ZORA-BLYP/TZ2P. Besides explo...
