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
80 °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

  • 18% of 2,6-dimethyl-N-[(7-methyl-7-azabicyclo[2.2.1]heptan-1-yl)-(3-morpholin-4-ylphenyl)methyl]benzamide.

Procedure

Copied from the source record, unedited

To a suspension of N-((3-bromophenyl)(7-methyl-7-azabicyclo[2.2.1]heptan-1-yl)methyl)-2,6-dimethylbenzamide (0.040 g, 0.09 mmol), MORPHOLINE (8.97 µL, 0.10 mmol), BINAP (5.83 mg, 9.36 µmol), and sodium tert-butoxide (0.013 g, 0.14 mmol) in toluene (2 mL) was added palladium(II) acetate (1.051 mg, 4.68 µmol). Nitrogen was passed through the solution for 15 min prior to being heated at 80 °C overnight. Crude LC shows starting material still present. Heated to 110oC for 2 days. Reaqction no longer progressing. Reaction mixture was concentrated in vacuo. Material was diluted with ethyl acetate, filtered thru celite and concentrated in vacuo. Submitted to purification group (52 mg in 1.6 mL DMSO). Received back dried- down fractions. Diluted with DCM, combined and concentrated to afford 2,6-d

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.
