Continuous flow synthesis of meso-substituted porphyrins with inline UV–Vis analysis

A recent study showcases the successful continuous flow synthesis of meso-substituted porphyrins, with real-time UV–Vis monitoring using the FlowUV device from Asynt. The abstract reads: Graphical Abstract Porphyrin derivatives have found diverse applications due to their attractive photophysical and catalytic properties, but remain challenging to synthesize, particularly at scale. Porphyrin synthesis thus stands to benefit from the more controlled environment, opportunities for efficient...
