Abstract

A method for identification of fast and slow steps of catalytic cycles is suggested. This method provides reliable data for reactions conducted at an unsteady-state catalyst concentration. It has been used in the determination of the rate-determining step in the Heck reaction of aryl bromides and in the Suzuki reaction of aryl bromides and aryl iodides. The data obtained by this method are in agreement with the data obtained by other methods, including kinetic isotope effect measurements.
