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

Duration
22 hours

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

No yield is recorded for this run. The source listed the products without measuring how much of each came out, so there is no number to quote.

Every recorded run making this product

96 runs of this class made the same product. The 40 highest-yielding are listed; this page's run is among them.

Every value is as the source recorded it. A run with no yield was reported without one, and nothing here is averaged, modelled or filled in.

Procedure

Copied from the source record, unedited

The Mosquito was used to combine the source plate solutions by multi-aspiration of 250 nL of each of the four reaction components and then to dose the resulting reaction mixture (1 uL) into a 1536-well plate

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.
