Chemical Communications, 53(5), 854-856. https://doi.org/10.1039/C6CC08824Dhttps://doi.org/10.1039/C6CC08824Dhttp://hdl.handle.net/1828/10162A combination of UV-Vis spectroscopy and electrospray ionization mass spectrometry is used for real-time monitoring of Pd2(dba)3 activation with sulfonated versions of PPh3 and Buchwald-type ligands. This provides insight into the effect of ligand and preparation conditions on activation and allows for establishment of rational activation protocols.enPostprint
