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
90 °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

  • 0% of 4-Chloro-2-(piperazin-1-yl)benzonitrile.

Procedure

Copied from the source record, unedited

Tris(dibenzylideneacetone)dipalladium (0) (43.4 mg, 0.05 mmol) and rac-2,2'-Bis(diphenylphosphino)-1,1'-binaphthyl (59.0 mg, 0.09 mmol) were added to a mixture of 2-bromo-4-chlorobenzonitrile (205 mg, 0.95 mmol), Cesium carbonate (463 mg, 1.42 mmol) and Piperazine (163 mg, 1.89 mmol) in dioxane (3 mL). Reaction vessel was placed in an oil bath set to 90 °C 2.45pm. LCMS o/n shows large product peak (222). Cooled, filtered through a silica plug, washing with EtOAc until filtrate is clear. Crude NMR is very messy, target deprioritized. Discarded.

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.
