Abstract

AbstractA series of continuous flow chemistry processes that facilitate the palladium‐catalysed carbonylation of aryl and vinyl iodides and aryl bromides with a range of alkoxy, hydroxy and amino nucleophiles is reported. Harnessing a semipermeable Teflon® AF‐2400 Tube‐in‐Tube assembly, these reactors permit the controlled transport of carbon monoxide into solution at elevated pressure to generate homogeneous flow streams, avoiding some potential issues associated with segmented flow gas‐liquid reactors. As the volume of pressurised gas contained within the device is low, the hazards associated with this are potentially mitigated relative to comparable batch processes. We also show how the incorporation of a second in‐line gas‐flow reactor allows for the sequential introduction of two gases (carbon monoxide and a gaseous nucleophile) into the reaction stream.
