Elemental fluorine. Part 13. Gas-liquid thin film microreactors for selective direct fluorination.
Continuous flow gas-liquid thin film microreactors have been effectively used for the selective fluorination of a range of 1,3-dicarbonyl and aromatic substrates and, additionally, the conversion of aromatic disulfides to the corresponding sulfur pentafluorides. Scale-up was demonstrated by the application of a three channel microreactor device fabricated by replication of a single channel system.
