Palladium-catalyzed arylation of various adamantane-containing amines with 2-bromopyridine
            has been studied, and the influence of the phosphane ligand, concentration, and molar
            ratio of the reagents on the composition of the reaction mixture and on the yield
            of the target adamantylpyridin-2-amines has been analyzed. The dependence of the formation
            of N,N-diarylated products on the nature of the starting adamantylamines is shown.
