Since the electronic revolution, miniaturisation has been the trend for devices from consumer electronics to scientific instruments. In this time very little has changed in the manner, or scale, that synthetic organic chemistry has been carried out even though advances in instrumentation mean that less compound is required for identification and analysis. This project aims to bridge the gap by developing recyclable miniaturised reaction vessels for the formation of organic compounds on a scale thousands of times smaller than it is currently done. These devices will have applications in drug discovery programmes due to higher throughput and increased efficiency while minimising waste.Read moreRead less
