Arcinova has invested in a Uniqsis flowsyn™ continuous flow reactor enabling them to develop and simplify the scale-up of a challenging API batch process. Following a trial of the flowsyn™ system – Arcinova could justify their investment based upon rapid synthetic method development and the considerable cost and time savings demonstrated versus using large scale reactor vessels for the selected process. The flowsyn™ is a compact integrated continuous flow reactor system designed for easy, safe and efficient operation. The flowsyn™ range includes models for performing single or multiple homogeneous or heterogeneous reactions, either manually or automatically.
Chemistry applications
The range of reactions that can be explored with Uniqsis’ integrated and modular flow chemistry systems grows ever wider and is exemplified by the growing number of applications published both in the academic press and in Uniqsis’ own application notes. Typical examples of flow chemistry applications include hydrogenation, nitration, bromination, metalation, molecular rearrangements and synthesis of compounds such as dihyropyridine, indole, pyrazole, quinolinone and benzimidazole.
