A practical microreactor for electrochemistry in flow

Abstract

SummaryA microreactor for electrochemical synthesis has been designed and fabricated. It has been shown that different reactions can be carried out successfully using simple protocols.

Electrochemical flow-reactor for expedient synthesis of copper–N-heterocyclic carbene complexes

“…An electrochemical microreactor for the synthesis of organic compounds in flow has previously been reported. 15 Herein, we report the design, construction and optimisation of an electrochemical flow-reactor for the synthesis of both neutral heteroleptic and cationic homoleptic Cu I -NHC complexes. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first example of the electrochemical synthesis of metal complexes in continuous flow.…”

Moderne Aspekte der Elektrochemie zur Synthese hochwertiger organischer Produkte

“…[138] Hierbei ist anzumerken, dass die erhaltenen Ausbeuten fürd en kontinuierlichen Prozess deutlich hçher waren als fürd en nicht kontinuierlichen Prozess im Kolben. Wirth und Mitarbeiter demonstrierten die Durchflusselektrosynthese einer Vielzahl an Diaryliodoniumsalzen unter Verwendung eines Mikroreaktors (Schema 46), [140] aber auch die CF 3 -u nd CF 2 H-Funktionali-Schema 41. Zusätzlich kann das gebildete Benzochinon direkt umgesetzt werden, bevor es zerfällt.…”
