(A) Substitution of isopropyl with methyl groups leads to an important selectivity jump, likely due to a conformational change. Global minimum conformers are optimized at the ωB97X-D/6-31G(d) level of theory. (B) Synthesized ligands ranked following their distance from the origin in a yield versus selectivity plot. Distances further from the origin indicate superior performance.
