A lot of synthesis are still done in a sequential way using three neck flasks with reflux condensers, gas supply taps, stirring motors and heating bathes. Syntheses in is way are very time consuming and costly.
A lot of synthesis are still done in a sequential way using three neck flasks with reflux condensers, gas supply taps, stirring motors and heating bathes. Syntheses in is way are very time consuming and costly.
In modern laboratories chemical reactions are more and more performed in parallel. To save time, lab space and equipment costs the chemists are using a parallel synthesiser. There are high requests to such systems. Syntheses should be performed under reflux and inert conditions with a wide temperature range of about 20°C up to 150°C.Vortex mixing, that means mixingwithout a magnetic stirrer, is also a big need specially by doing solid phase reactions.
Büchi is now offering a modular solution with the Syncore Reactor. With a wide variety of accessories like evaporating cover, it is also possible to use the instrument as a parallel evaporator.
The solvent can be condensed contrary to competition products. This increases working place safety and protects the environment.
The new filtration module, which is coming soon, will suit the needs of solid phase chemistry. Filtrating, washing and collecting of the synthesised products can be done in parallel. u
