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

  • 13% of 2-Cyclopentyl-N-(2,6-dimethyl-4-morpholin-4-yl-phenyl)-acetamide.

Procedure

Copied from the source record, unedited

Exemplar cmpd from, though employing slightly different Buchwald-Hartwig coupling conditions. Tris(dibenzylidenacetone)dipalladium(0) (31 mg, 0.03 mmol) and 2'-(dicyclohexylphosphino)-N,N-dimethylbiphenyl-2-amine (27 mg, 0.07 mmol) were stirred in anhydrous toluene (3 mL) for 15 minutes under an argon (g) sparge. To the stirring soluntion was added the N-(4-bromo-2,6-dimethylphenyl)-2-cyclopentylacetamide (208 mg, 0.67 mmol) and morpholine (0.070 mL, 0.80 mmol) neat, followed by the potassium tert-butoxide (1M in THF) (0.94 mL, 0.94 mmol) via syringe. he mixture was then heated in a sealed vessel to 80 °C for 18hrs before cooling to ambint temperature. The mixture was filtered thru a 0.7uM GMF. The resultant crude solution was subject to flash chromatorgraphy (SiO2 \- 12 g; gradient eluti

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.
