We studied key aspects of the mechanism of Pd-catalyzed C-CN bond activation and intramolecular enantioselective alkene cyanoamidation. An Abboud-Abraham-Kamlet-Taft (AAKT) linear solvation energy relationship (LSER) model for enantioselectivity was established. We investigated the impact of Lewis acid (BPh<sub>3</sub>), Lewis base (DMPU), and no additives. BPh<sub>3</sub> additive led to diminished enantioselectivity and differing results in <sup>13</sup>CN crossover experiments, initial rate k ...[more]
