Symyx Homogeneous Catalysis Workflows significantly increase the number of experiments, and scale down reagent use while maintaining data quality through expanded screening of variable compromises.
The Homogeneous Catalysis Workflow utilizes liquid and solid handling robotics, parallel pressure reactors, and standard analytical screens to study up to hundreds of reactions per day under different pressure and temperature conditions.
Symyx Homogeneous Catalysis workflows allow researchers to widen screening to eliminate compromises in the choice of variables studied including catalyst compositions and process conditions while enabling:
- Experiment design and definition
- Catalyst synthesis
- Reaction execution
- Characterization and data analysis
- Workup
- Reporting
- Easily design experiments to explore a diverse set of reaction conditions in a much shorter time period than by traditional methods
- Define gradients of catalysts, activators, reagents, and solvents, etc.
- Screen substrates, catalysts, reactants, solvents, and reaction conditions (time, temperature, pressure, concentration) for a wide range of condensed phase reactions
- Accurately dispense small amounts of catalyst reagent solutions or slurries, minimizing consumption of precious materials
- Screen hundreds of reaction conditions per day under a range of temperature and pressure conditions to quickly define and optimize process parameters
- Quickly determine ideal catalyst for a desired transformation
- Optimize catalyst loading, ligand/metal ratios, and additives, etc.
- Create, calculate, and visualize data using Symyx Software
- Generate process knowledge for further optimization and definition of process parameters
