The mechanism of the oxidative addition of aryl halides to Pd-catalysts: a DFT investigation.
Based on DFT calculations, a new mechanism for the oxidative addition of aryl halides to Pd-catalysts is presented. The key intermediate is an anionic Pd-species in which the aryl halide coordinates to the palladium via the halide atom.
