The FRX system from Syrris makes flow chemistry cost effective, easy to use, understandable and affordable. FRX is made up of a number of modules that can be connected together to form simple yet powerful flow chemistry systems.
FRX Benefits
Faster reactions: Increase reaction rates over 100 fold by superheating reactions significantly above reflux e.g. dichloromethane to 100°C, acetonitrile to 150°C and water to 170°C.
Cleaner reactions: Reduced impurities via excellent, reproducible reaction control and optional use of solid phase reagents/catalysts/scavengers.
Inline aqueous work-up: The Flow Liquid Liquid Extraction Module (FLLEX) enables two immiscible phases to be mixed and separated in flow, immediately following the reaction.
Safer reactions: Only small amounts of material react at any time, minimising exotherms and the quantity of any hazardous intermediates.
Rapid development: Reaction time, temperature and equivalents can be rapidly varied using mg of substrate.
Scale-up: Production rates up to kg overnight. Wide temperature range: Heat reactions up to 200°C or cool down to -20°C.
Chemically resistant: Glass and PTFE reactors allow a wide range of chemistry.
Compact size: FRX systems fit easily into standard fume cupboards.
