Industrial Collaboration Delivers Highly Versatile Photoreactor

Versatile photochemical reactor for optimized batch and flow chemistry

This white paper, courtesy of Uniqsis, describes an academic / industrial collaboration that has led to the development of a versatile new photoreactor for high-throughput screening, preparative-scale batch, reactions and continuous processing, all with a single light source.

The Photochemistry LED Illuminator uses interchangeable arrays of pseudo-monochromatic high-power LEDs in a range of synthetically useful wavelengths, combined with excellent temperature control. This offers the user the functionality to run reaction screening and optimization experiments with the multi wavelength cassette and the opportunity to run batch scale-up synthesis using the optimum wavelength monochromatic cassette.

Furthermore, the Photochemistry LED Illuminator can be fitted with an adapter that supports a flow through glass static mixer chip to allow continuous processing scale-up at the optimum wavelength.
