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
20 °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

  • 56% of 4-(6-Bromopyridin-3-yl)morpholine.

Procedure

Copied from the source record, unedited

Pd2(dba)3 (0.564 g, 0.62 mmol) was added to 2-bromo-5-iodopyridine (5.00 g, 17.61 mmol), morpholine (1.541 mL, 17.61 mmol), sodium tert-butoxide (4.23 g, 44.03 mmol) and Xantphos (1.019 g, 1.76 mmol) in toluene (200 mL) at 20°C. The resulting solution was stirred at r.t. for 3 days (as the reaction was started on a Friday). Complete. The reaction mixture was diluted with EtOAc (100 mL), and washed sequentially with water (100 mL) and saturated brine (100 mL). The organic layer was dried with MgSO4, filtered and evaporated to afford crude product. The crude product was purified by flash silica chromatography, elution gradient 0 to 100% (EtOAc:MeOH - 10:1) in heptane. Pure fractions were evaporated to dryness LCMS indicated some di-substituted product present. Triturated in heptane:EtOAc,

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.
