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
110 °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

  • 85% of 1-(4-methoxyphenyl)-3-methyl-1-[(Z)-1-(4-methylphenyl)prop-1-enyl]-3-(6-methyl-2-pyridinyl)urea.

Procedure

Copied from the source record, unedited

(Z)-1-(4-methoxyphenyl)-3-methyl-1-(1-p-tolylprop-1-enyl)urea (0.17200 g, 0.55 mmol),2-bromo-6-methylpyridine (0.126 ml, 1.11 mmol),SODIUM TERT-BUTOXIDE (0.160 g, 1.66 mmol),XANTPHOS (0.032 g, 0.06 mmol) and Pd2(dba)3 (0.025 g, 0.03 mmol) were dissolved intoluene (5.42 ml) and sparged under nitrogen for 15minutes . The resulting mixture was then heated to 110 °C for 29/03/2010 48 hours or unitil conversion was complete by TLC. NH4Cl (10 mL) was added 31-Mar-10 09:49:52 +0100 and the mixture was extracted twice (EtOAc 20 mL). The organic phases were combined, washed with brine (20 mL), dried (MgSO4) and the solvent removed under reduced pressure. The crude product was then purified by flash column chromatography to give (Z)-1-(4-methoxyphenyl)-3-methyl-3-(6-methylpyridin-2-yl)-1-(1-p-tolylp

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.
