Abstract

An automated, silicon-based microreactor system has been developed for rapid, low-volume, multidimensional reaction screening. Use of the microfluidic platform to identify transformations of densely functionalized bicyclo[3.2.1]octanoid scaffolds will be described.

Automated microfluidic platform for reaction screening. Components include: (a) computer with operating software, (b) multi-head syringe pump, (c) liquid handler, (d) 96-well reagent block, (e) compression packaging that houses microreactor and thermoelectric module, (f) UV detection for optical triggering, (g) sampling valve, (h) 96-well plate fraction collector, and feedback control loops (i – k) for reagent injection, temperature control, and sample collection, respectively.

a) Illustration of sequential reaction pluses and the dispersion caused by laminar flow and surface wetting. b) Example of sample collection via optical triggering. Collection begins and terminates once concentration of reaction pulse crosses a specified threshold, thereby enabling collection of the central portion of the pulse.
