Flow chemistry: A usefulmethod for performinghazardous chemistry in a safer mannerLászló [email protected]
![Page 2: ThalesNano Presentation 2013](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022081605/55504abcb4c9058f768b50f1/html5/thumbnails/2.jpg)
What is flow chemistry?
• Performing a reaction continuously, typically on small scale,through either a coil or fixed bed reactor.

Where is flow chemistry applied best?
Exothermic Reactions•Very good temperature control•Accurate residence time control•Efficient mixing•Less chance for thermal run-away•Higher productivity per volume•High selectivity
Endothermic Reactions
•Control over T, p and residence time•High selectivity•Accessing new chemistry•Higher productivity per volume•High atom efficiency
Reactions with gases
•Accurate gas flow regulation•Increased safety•Easy catalyst recycling•High selectivity•Higher productivity per volume
Scale up
•Increased safety•Higher productivity per volume•Selectivity•Reproducibility

Miniaturization: Enhanced temperature control
Large surface/volume rate• Microreactors have higher surface-to-volume ratio than macroreactors, heat
transfer occurs rapidly in a flow microreactor, enabling precise temperature control.

Heating Control
Batch Flow
- Lower reaction volume. - Closer and uniform temperature control
Outcome:
- Safer chemistry.- Lower possibility of exotherm.
- Larger solvent volume. - Lower temperature control.
Outcome:
-More difficult reaction control. - Higher possibility of exotherm.

• ThalesNano makes laboratory reactors that chemists use tocreate new drugs, new aromas, new chemicals, or newprocesses.
• We push the boundaries of science by giving chemists the tools to access novel chemistry at high temperatures and pressures safely and rapidly.
• We also make existing processes safer and more efficient.
Who we are, what we do?

Hydrogenation
![Page 12: ThalesNano Presentation 2013](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022081605/55504abcb4c9058f768b50f1/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
• Current hydrogenation processes have many disadvantages:
Need hydrogen cylinder-tough safety regulations Separate laboratory needed! Time consuming and difficult to set up Catalyst addition and filtration is hazardous Parr has low temperature, low pressure capability Analytical sample obtained through invasive means. Mixing of 3 phases inefficient - poor reaction rates

• Ozonolysis is a technique that cleaves double and• triple C-C bonds to form a C-O bond.
• Market segments: • Pharmaceutical, Fine chemicals, Agrochemicals• Any organic chemistry synthesis segment.

Why ozonolysis is neglected?
• Highly exothermic reaction, high risk of explosion • Normally requires low temperature: -78°C.• In addition, the batchwise accumulation of ozonide is
associated again with risk of explosion• There are alternative oxidizing agents/systems:
• Sodium Periodate – Osmium Tetroxide (NaIO4-OsO4)
• Ru(VIII)O4 + NaIO4
• Jones oxidation (CrO3, H2SO4)• Swern oxidation
• Most of the listed agents are toxic, difficult, and/or expensive to use.

• Most aromatic diazonium salts are not stable at temperatures above 5°C
• The synthesis reaction to prepare the diazonium salt is typically exothermic, producing between 65 and 150 kJ/mole and is usually run industrially at sub-ambient temperatures
• Diazonium salts decompose exothermically, producing between 160 and 180 kJ/mole
• Many diazonium salts are shock-sensitive

Azo dyes
• Azo dyes are synthetic colours that contain an azo group, -N=N-, as part of the structure. Azo groups do not occur naturally.
• Azo dyes account for approximately 60-70% of all dyes used in food and textile manufacture.
• Azo des used in food: E102: Tartrazine, E107: Yellow 2G, E110: Sunset Yellow, E122: Azorubine, E123: Amaranth, E124: Ponceau 4R, E129: Allura Red, E151: Brilliant Black, E154: Brown FK, E155: Brown HT, E180 Lithol Rubine BK

Advantages of diazotization in flow:
• safe handling of the diazonium salt• only small amount of diazonium is present at one time, determined by the size of the first loop (1.7 ml in our case)• Cooling is very effective, no danger of overheating and explosion• Diazotization can be driven safely > 5°C, if the residence time in the first loop is short enough• pH can be kept constant during the coupling• Residence time can be as low as 0.5-1 min, with concentrations similar to batch conditions (0.66M solutions)

Nitration
Nitration is a general class of chemical process for the introduction of a nitro
group into an organic chemical compound.
Industrial use of nitro compounds:
• Drugs
• Explosives
• Solvents
• Plastics
• Rocket propellants
Hazards of nitrations:
• Highly exothermic
• Tends to be runaway
• Sideproducts are highly poisoning
• The products are explosives

Cryogenic operating conditions (< - 60°C), limit its utility for scale up operations in batch.

Using TFAA as a DMSO activator seems to afford even higher temperatures.
No chloromethyl-methyl-sulfide production at higher Temps.

Conclusions
• Hazardous reactions can be managed in a safer manner using the flow methodology
• Better temperature control• Smaller amount of reactants• More efficient mixing
• Some exothermic reactions were shown as case studies
• Hydrogenation• Carbonylation• Ozonolysis• Diazotization• Nitration• Swen oxidation
