Popis: Microwave-promoted esterification reactions have been monitored using in situ Raman spectroscopy. Having optimised a reaction on a 23 mmol scale, it was transferred to a larger reaction vessel and scaled up to 0.26 mol, again with Raman monitoring. With conditions in hand, an automated stop-flow apparatus was used to prepare 5.7 moles of product.
