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
50 °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 tert-butyl N-[2-(1-phenylpiperidin-4-yl)ethyl]carbamate.

Every recorded run making this product

2 runs of this class made the same product and differed in what else was in the flask. They are listed from the highest yield down, with this page's run marked.

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

palladium(II) acetate (21.45 mg, 0.10 mmol) and (9,9-dimethyl-9H-xanthene-4,5-diyl)bis(diphenylphosphine) (111 mg, 0.19 mmol) were placed in a round-bottomed vessel that was filled with nitrogen. Toluene (0.8 mL) was added and the mixture was heated to 50°C for 30 min. sodium tert-butoxide (138 mg, 1.43 mmol) was added to a second vessel and inerted with nitrogen. tert-butyl 2-(piperidin-4-yl)ethylcarbamate (342 mg, 1.5 mmol) and bromobenzene (150mg, 0.96 mmol) and toluene (1.4 mL) were added. 14/04 2009 13:57:24 +0200 The catalyst solution was added to the reagent mixture and the combined mixture was heated to reflux for several hours. The reaction did not work.

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.
