PhotoRedOx Duo™

Meet our photoreactor with double-capacity: The EvoluChem PhotoRedOx Duo™. It’s the choice for the chemist who seeks higher reaction capacity and increased light intensity than found in the PhotoRedOx Box™.

This photoreactor with double-capacity leverages the same patented concept (US Patent #10,906,022) as the original PhotoRedOx Box™. PhotoRedOx Duo™ increases the reaction vials capacity to 16 vials (2, 4 or 8 ml) using 2 of the same vial holders as the PhotoRedOx Box™. Using the 2 blue LED setup allows to increase reaction rate of difficult reaction conditions.

Reaction protocol

In duplicate in a 4-ml vial equipped with a teflon septa and 2×7 mm stir bar, were weighed 4-bromoacetophenone (4.95 mg, 25 μmol) and potassium benzyltrifluoroborate (4.50 mg, 25 μmol, 1 equiv.). To this vial was added a 1.0 ml solution in DMA containing NiCl2-dme (1.1 mg, 5 μmol, 0.1 mol %), dtbbpy (1.3 mg, 5 μmol, 0.1 mol %) and Ir(dF-CF3-ppy)2(dtbpy) (1.12 mg, 1 μmol, 0.02 mol %) followed by addition of 2,6-lutidine (17.5 μl, 150 μmol, 6 equiv.) . The solution was sparged with nitrogen via submerged needle for 5 minutes and vial was placed in EvoluChem™ photoreactor with blue Kessil 34W LED or reactor with two blue kessil 34W. Reaction time course was monitored at 0, 5, 15, 45, 120, 240, and 360 minutes.
