Automated Flow Platforms with In-Built Flexibility – Radial Synthesis and Beyond
Kerry Gilmore,

Automated flow chemistry platforms have the capability to significantly accelerate and standardize the development and study of organic chemistry reactions and processes. However, one limitation of the general approach is the design of custom systems for specific targets or processes. This requires physical reconfiguration of the system to perform the next “unique” process. By decoupling sequential process steps, an incredible degree of flexibility is introduced into a multistep continuous process. This approach affords numerous capabilities unavailable in a traditional flow system. In this talk, we will discuss how automated platforms using this approach create the opportunity for one-stop systems for fully remote research and data generation.
