Abstract

Automated synthesis and flow chemistry have attracted a great deal of attention in recent years because these process improve both the reproducibility and reliability of synthesis.¹ Development of automated synthetic procedures and storage of relevant digital data allow anyone to reproduce the same results anytime and anywhere using the same apparatus and reagents. As a result, synthetic chemists can spend more time on advanced and challenging problems. Automated synthesis and flow chemistry often enhance the safety profile of the synthetic processes.² Flow chemistry is effective for the hazardous reactions using toxic reagents or high pressure gases. Herein, we report the automated synthesis of taxol³, enediyne⁴, lewisX⁵and ketopiperazine analogues and the flow synthesis of peptides⁶ and aliphatic aldehydes⁷.
