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
120 °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

  • 65% of (R)-4-(benzyloxy)-N-(2-(tert-butyldimethylsilyloxy)propyl)-3-fluoroaniline.

Procedure

Copied from the source record, unedited

PdOAc2 (0.799 g, 3.56 mmol) and dicyclohexyl(2',4',6'-triisopropylbiphenyl-2-yl)phosphine (1.696 g, 3.56 mmol) were added in one portion to a degassed solution of 1-(benzyloxy)-4-bromo-2-fluorobenzene (10.00 g, 35.57 mmol), (R)-2-(tert- butyldimethylsilyloxy)propan-1-amine (8.08 g, 42.69 mmol) and cesium carbonate (17.39 g, 53.36 mmol) in toluene (150 mL) at 120°C under nitrogen. The resulting suspension was stirred at 120 °C for 16 hours. The reaction was incomplete so the reaction mixture was stirred for a further 24 hours at 120°C. The reaction mixture was diluted with EtOAc (150 mL) and water (150 mL). The biphasic mixture was filtered through celite. The organic layer was separated and washed sequentially with water (150 mL) and saturated brine (150 mL). The organic layer was filtered

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.
