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
95 °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 5-Fluoro-2-(pyrrolidin-1-yl)benzaldehyde.

Other recorded runs with the same starting material

No other run in the library makes this product. These runs of the same class start from one of the same reactants, which is the nearest company this record has.

Procedure

Copied from the source record, unedited

To a mixture of pyrrolidine (328 mg, 3.05 mmol), 2-bromo-4-fluorobenzaldehyde (619 mg, 3.05 mmol) in toluene (10 ml) was added Cs2CO3 (2.48g, 7.62 mmol), BINAP (95 mg ) and palladium(II) acetate (35 mg) was added. The mixture was purged with Ar for 5 min, then heated at 95 oC for 4 hrs. After cooled to RT, EtOAc (30 mL) was added. The organic layer was washed with water (3 x 30 mL), brine (30 mL), dried over MgSO4, filetred and concentrated. The residue was purified via combiflush (0 - 20% EtOAc/Hexane; 40 g column) to give the desired product as a clear reddish liquid. LCMS and H-NMR look good. 290 mg Conclusion: reaction progressed to give desired product in 49% yield.

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.
