A bobcat ponders which path he should take up the mountain : a long hiking trail or a more direct, but steep, climbing route. His decision is influenced by the gear that he carries. In this case, the bobcat is equipped with rope and is therefore likely to choose the climbing route. Similarly, cross‐coupling catalysts sometimes have a “choice” between two different electrophiles, and a catalyst′s selectivity for one electrophile over the other is often influenced by the ligands that it bears. For more information see the Minireview by Sharon R. Neufeldt and co‐workers on page 6161.
