Syrris has launched the Asia range of advanced flow chemistry systems, available in three variations offering a flexible and modular design and maximum chemical resistance.
The Asia systems, available from John Morris Scientific, can be configured to meet the individual needs of any chemist and can be upgraded to meet changing demands.
The Asia features a range of temperatures, pressures and reactions times on scales from mg to kg.
Series One (manual) is a robust, chemical-resistant microreactor system for solution-phase chemistry that is suitable for chemists with a lower budget or those who prefer not to have automation.
Series One has a temperature range of -15C to +150C and a pressure rate of 300lb/in2.
The model 110 contains two chemically resistant, ultra-smooth pump channels, a glass microreactor with heater and cooler and back pressure controller for super heating.
The model 120 contains the same features as the 110 as well as a high-temperature microreactor heater, solid-phase chemistry reactors and heater adapter and a preparative scale tube reactor and heater.
The model 130 contains the same features as the 120 as well as inert solvent/reagent storage, two automated reagent injection loops and a product collector.
Series Two (automatic) is designed to automatically perform one experiment at a time.
Parameters such as reaction temperature, pressure, reagent injections and collection timings are all automated.
Series Two is suitable as an introduction to flow synthesis, according to Syrris.
The model 210 contains the same features as the 110 as well as inert solvent/reagent storage, a product collector and automation of reaction conditions and collection.
The model 220 contains the same features as the 210 as well as two automated reagent injection loops, a high-temperature microreactor heater, solid-phase chemistry reactors and heater adapter and a preparative-scale tube reactor and heater adapter.
The model 230 contains the same features as the 220 as well as two additional pump channels, two additional injection loops, flow aqueous work-up and full PC software control.
Series Three (automatic) offers fully automated collection of multiple multi-step reactions in solution or solid phase.
It allows the user to automatically perform process optimisation.
Parameters such as reaction time, temperature and ratio of reagents can be varied and each reaction collected and analysed automatically.
Series Three has a temperature range of -15C to +250C and a pressure rate of 300lb/in2.
The model 310 contains the same features as the 110 as well as inert solvent/reagent storage, two automated reagent injection loops, automation of reaction conditions and automated collector.
The model 320 contains the same features as the 310 as well as two additional pump channels, two additional injection loops, a high-temperature microreactor heater, solid-phase chemistry reactors and heater adapter, preparative-scale tube reactor and heater adapter and full PC software control.
The model 330 contains the same features as the 320 as well as a flow aqueous work-up and automated sampler and diluter for online analysis.
Asia's syringe pump comes standard with all models.
