Influence of pressure on diels-alder reactions performed in glass microreactors

Research output: Chapter in Book/Report/Conference proceedingConference contributionAcademicpeer-review

Abstract

A microreactor platform that resists pressures up to 150 bar has been constructed and used to study the influence of pressure on the Diels-Alder reaction of cyclopentadiene with methyl-, phenyl- and benzylmaleimides. The reaction of cyclopentadiene with phenylmaleimide and benzylmaleimide showed 1.7-fold and 1.3-fold higher conversions, respectively, compared with batch experiments, whereas the reaction of cyclopentadiene with methylmaleimide was alsmost not accelerated.
