Diels-Alder cycloadditions by microwave-assisted, continuous flow organic synthesis (MACOS): the role of metal films in the flow tube.
Thin Pd films have been deposited on the inside of capillary-sized tubes through which compounds undergoing Diels-Alder reactions have been flowed while being heated with microwave irradiation; dramatic rate accelerations are observed in the presence of the film, which has been shown to play both a heating and catalytic role.
