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.

100 °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

  • 46% of tert-Butyl 4-(quinolin-2-yl)piperazine-1-carboxylate.

Procedure

Copied from the source record, unedited

A 2.0-5.0 mL microwave vial was charged with tert-Butyl 1-piperazinecarboxylate (100 mg, 0.54 mmol), 2-Chloroquinoline (0.086 mL, 0.64 mmol), Sodium tert-butoxide (61.9 mg, 0.64 mmol), rac-2,2'-Bis(diphenylphosphino)-1,1'-binaphthyl (33.4 mg, 0.05 mmol) and toluene (3 mL). The reaction mixture was degassed for 10 minutes with nitrogen, and then Tris(dibenzylideneacetone)dipalladium(0) (24.58 mg, 0.03 mmol) was added. The reaction mixture was stirred at 100°C in an oil bath for 12h. The solution was diluted with EtOAc and washed with saturated NaHCO3, brine, dried over sodium sulfate, filtered and concentrated under reduced pressure. The crude material was loaded on a 40g silica gel column and purified on a Teledyne Isco instrument, eluting with 10% to 40% ethyl acetate in heptane. Product

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.
