Corning Advanced-Flow Reactors’ Post

Unlocking New Possibilities in α-Alkylation with Flow Chemistry. 🔬      We are proud to highlight the work of Mark Molnar, C. Oliver Kappe, and Sándor Balázs Ötvös, who, with the Corning® Advanced-Flow™ Reactors team, demonstrated a scalable and efficient flow chemistry approach for synthesizing α-alkylated aldehydes, including critical intermediates such as (R)-Esonarimod. This demonstration of scale able and efficient production is highly attractive for pharmaceutical production.      They achieved enantioselective α-alkylation of aldehydes using Corning’s Lab Photo Reactor. This innovative, photosensitizer-free process delivered impressive yields of 70–90% and 71–91% ee - showcasing outstanding productivity. 👉 Learn more here: Merger of Visible Light‐Driven Chiral Organocatalysis and Continuous Flow Chemistry: https://lnkd.in/et8-y_5S
