The choice of ligand can have a profound impact on the chemoselectivity
of certain reactions. Fu and co-workers found that in Suzuki-Miyaura
coupling, different ligands have different relative reactivity with aryl chlo-
rides versus triflates. Whereas the catalyst based on the t-Bu 3 P ligand is more
selective towards chloride substrates, the Cy 3 P-based catalyst is more se-
lective for triflate substrates. 55 The same chemoselectivity trend has been
observed using preformed (t-Bu 3 P) 2 Pd and (Cy 3 P) 2 Pd, 56 which is discussed in
some detail in Chapter 2.
Varying the ligand of the L 2 Pd(0) catalyst can also have an impact on the
chemistry of a cross-coupling reaction. For example, Lautens and co-workers
