The equation does not balance as written. That is usual for an experimental record: the source listed what it put in and what it measured, not a stoichiometric equation.

Conditions

Temperature
120 °C

Only the dimensions the source stated are listed. Anything absent here was not recorded, and it is not inferred from what the class usually needs.

Yield

  • 19% of (R)-4-(benzyloxy)-N-(2-(tert-butyldimethylsilyloxy)propyl)aniline.

Procedure

Copied from the source record, unedited

Reaction carried out as follows: PdOAc2 (0.768 g, 3.42 mmol) and dicyclohexyl(2',4',6'-triisopropylbiphenyl-2-yl)phosphine (1.631 g, 3.42 mmol) were added in one portion to a degassed solution of 1-(benzyloxy)-4-bromobenzene (9.00 g, 34.20 mmol), (R)-2-(tert- butyldimethylsilyloxy)propan-1-amine (7.77 g, 41.04 mmol) and cesium carbonate (16.72 g, 51.31 mmol) in toluene (200 mL) at 20°C in a 300 ml Milestone microwave reactor. The microwave reactor was sealed and the reaction was heated to 120 °C for 10 hours in and cooled to RT. LCMS indicated some product but mainly sm so another aliquot of catalyst was added and put back on for 10 hours at 130°C. LCMS-2 indicated complete reaction. Handed back to chemist for work-up. Workup The reaction mixture was diluted with EtOAc (100 mL) and was

How to read this record

This is one experiment, not a rule. It says that on one occasion these species were combined under these conditions and this came out. It does not say the reaction will give the same result on your substrate, and nothing on the page has been generalised into a claim that it would.

The pathway is a separate question, kept on separate pages. A mechanism here is the canonical arrow pushing for a class, run on real structures and labelled rule-derived. It is not evidence, and this record is not a mechanism.
