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
115 °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

  • 12% of the product.

Procedure

Copied from the source record, unedited

In a 5 MW vial, Pd2((dba)3 (7.23 mg, 7.90 µmol), 2,2'-bis(diphenylphosphanyl)-1,1'-binaphthalene (BINAP) (9.71 mg, 0.02 mmol), sodium 2-methylpropan-2-olate (174 mg, 1.81 mmol), (3-methyloxetan-3-yl)methanamine (126 mg, 1.25 mmol) and 2-bromo-3-chloropyridine (200 mg, 1.04 mmol) mixed in toluene (2 mL) to give a brown suspension. The mixture was degassed with N2 bubbling for 5 min, then the vial was capped and the reaction stirred at 115°C in an oil-bath for 1h then to rt for 2h. LC-MS: 61% product, 28% sm left. The reaction was cooled to rt and the solvent was evaporated. The residue was purified by automated flash chromatography on a 25g column. A gradient from 5% to 50% of EtOAc in heptane over 15CV was used as mobile phase. The product was collected using the wavelength 315 nm, rele

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.
