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
90 °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

  • 62% of 1-(4-Bromophenyl)-cis-3,5-dimethylpiperazine.

Procedure

Copied from the source record, unedited

sodium 2-methylpropan-2-olate (4.08 g, 42.42 mmol) was added to (2R,6S)-2,6-dimethylpiperazine (4.84 g, 42.42 mmol) in dioxane (300 mL) at 21°C under nitrogen. Stirred for 5 mins. 1-bromo-4-iodobenzene (8 g, 28.28 mmol) added, followed by diacetoxypalladium (0.635 g, 2.83 mmol) and (9,9-dimethyl-9H-xanthene-4,5-diyl)bis(diphenylphosphine) (3.27 g, 5.66 mmol). Reaction evacuated and refilled with nitrogen several times. Heated at 90C for 18hours. Diluted with ethyl acetate and filtered through celite. The organic layer was washed with water ( 500ml) and then dried over Na2SO4, filtered and reduced in volume. Filtered - lcms messy. Dissolved in DCM and combined with the filtrate - adsorbed onto silica. The crude product was purified by flash silica chromatography, elution gradient 0 to 30%

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.
