9783527296057: Chemical Synthesis Using Supercritical Fluids

Synopsis

Well established in extractions and materials processing, supercritical fluids are becoming popular as media for modern chemical syntheses. Historically, the application of compressed gases has been restricted mainly to the production of bulk chemicals. However, research has turned to exploiting the unique properties of supercritical fluids for the synthesis of fine chemicals and specialized materials. The use of environmentally benign supercritical carbon dioxide or water increases the range of possible, solvent-free processes. Now that the necessary equipment is more readily available, the use of supercritical fluids should become more widespread in both laboratory and industrial scale syntheses. As well as an introduction to the properties of supercritical fluids, this text gives an account of chemistry in these alternative media.

Présentation de l'éditeur

For ′better solutions′ – this practical guide describes how to take advantage of supercritical fluids in chemical synthesis. Well–established in extractions and materials processing, supercritical fluids are becoming increasingly popular as media for modern chemical syntheses. Historically, the application of compressed gases has been restricted mainly to the production of bulk chemicals. In the last decade, however, research has turned to exploiting the unique properties of supercritical fluids for the synthesis of fine chemicals and specialized materials. Now that the necessary equipment is more readily available, the use of supercritical fluids should become more widespread in both laboratory and industrial scale syntheses.

More than merely a concise introduction to the properties of supercritical fluids, here leading experts give a thorough, up–to–date account of chemistry in these alternative media. In–depth scientific commentary, detailed reaction protocols, descriptions of necessary equipment, and an outline of spectroscopic techniques add to the value of this handbook aimed at innovative synthetic chemists.
