Descrizione Metals-in-Microwave: Chemistry in Flow at the "Speed of Lightning"?
Advancements in organic synthesis methodology, from a technological perspective, have occurred primarily in a traditional vessel format. Today, the development of continuous flow systems, incorporating microwaves has become important because of the economical and environmental impact that the flow technology has on the chemical and pharmaceutical industries. In this respect, the new technological approach developed by Gjergji Shore stands out among other 21st Century technologies for its uniqueness. The simplicity of the system design combined with an ingenious application of what was considered a "forbidden" concept until now, such as putting metals under microwave irradiation, makes for a unparalleled feat in the field of microwave-assisted flow technologies. Gjergji Shore's new technology raises the bar very high in terms of what can be achieved by microwave- assisted flow systems of the future compared with present applications. His approach is not only "green" in terms of environmental footprint, it changes the way in which organic synthesis in flow is being conducted.
