Abstract
Electrospray and Leidenfrost droplet accelerated reactions were used as a predictive tool for estimating the outcome of microfluidic synthesis as demonstrated by Wleklinski et al. Rapid analysis by electrospray-mass spectrometry (ESI-MS) also provided immediate feedback on reaction outcomes in flow reactions. Significant reaction acceleration was observed in electrospray relative to the corresponding bulk reaction. This rapid reaction screening and analysis method has allowed for the detection of previously unreported outcomes in the reaction between 5-chloro-2-(methylamino)benzophenone and haloacetyl chloride (halo = Cl or Br) in the continuous synthesis of diazepam. In our current study, a more detailed extension of the previous work, we report acceleration factors that are solvent dependent; additional byproducts that were observed on the microfluidic scale that were absent in the droplet reactions. Gaining insight from this combined droplet and microfluidic screening/rapid ESI-MS analysis approach, we...
