Abstract
Microporous networks of Pt nanoparticles (NP) interlinked by aromatic diamines have recently shown prospects of application as hydrogen combustion catalysts in H2 gas microsensors. In particular with respect to long-term sensor performance, they outperformed plain Pt NP as catalysts. In this paper, electron microscopy and Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy data on the stability of p-phenylene diamine (PDA) and of the PDA-linked Pt NP network structure during catalyst activation and long-term sensor operation at elevated temperature (up to 120-180 °C) will be presented. For the first time, all data were collected directly from microsensor catalysts, and FTIR was performed in operando, i.e., during activation and sensor operation. While the data confirm high long-term catalyst activity far superior to that of plain Pt NP over 5 days of testing, they reveal that PDA fully decomposed during long-term sensor operation and that the network of discrete Pt nanoparticles changed to a sponge-like Pt nanostructure already during catalyst activation. These findings are at variance with previous work which assumed that stability of the PDA-linked Pt NP network is prerequisite for catalyst stability and performance.

Hermans J, Alipour Najmi A, Permentier H, Bischoff R. Online coupling of a catalytic continuous microflow reactor to mass spectrometry. Talanta 2024; 266:124928. [PMID: 37454516 DOI: 10.1016/j.talanta.2023.124928] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/22/2023] [Revised: 07/05/2023] [Accepted: 07/07/2023] [Indexed: 07/18/2023]
Abstract
Flow cell reactors used for catalyst development and applications are upcoming due to their small environmental and economic footprint. Online microflow reactor coupling with mass spectrometry (MS) opens new possibilities for monitoring catalyst performance and identifying reaction products in real time. This is demonstrated for the metabolic relevant dealkylation of lidocaine on catalytic gold micro-particles using regular liquid chromatography modules. Yields of up to 90% norlidocaine were realized under mild continuous flow conditions for up to 10 h (pH 7, 30 °C and 20 μL/min). Dissolved oxygen was shown to be a rate-limiting factor, since an inline oxygen generator allowed to increase the reactor capacity by one order of magnitude. Monitoring product time-response curve slopes after starting and ending a substrate feed, provided insights into the adsorption/desorption and conversion kinetics at the catalyst surface indicating the presence of strong adsorption sites that do not contribute substantially to substrate conversion.

Abstract
As energy demand continues to rise and the global population steadily grows, there is a growing interest in exploring alternative, clean, and renewable energy sources. The search for alternatives, such as green hydrogen, as both a fuel and an industrial feedstock, is intensifying. Methane steam reforming (MSR) has long been considered a primary method for hydrogen production, despite its numerous advantages, the activity and stability of the conventional Ni catalysts are major concerns due to carbon formation and metal sintering at high temperatures, posing significant drawbacks to the process. In recent years, significant attention has been given to bimetallic catalysts as a potential solution to overcome the challenges associated with methane steam reforming. Thus, this review focuses on the recent advancements in bimetallic catalysts for hydrogen production through methane steam reforming. The review explores various aspects including reactor type, catalyst selection, and the impact of different operating parameters such as reaction temperature, pressure, feed composition, reactor configuration, and feed and sweep gas flow rates. The analysis and discussion revolve around key performance indicators such as methane conversion, hydrogen recovery, and hydrogen yield.

Abstract
In the last twenty years, the application of microreactors in chemical and biochemical industrial processes has increased significantly. The use of microreactor systems ensures efficient process intensification due to the excellent heat and mass transfer within the microchannels. Monitoring the concentrations in the microchannels is critical for a better understanding of the physical and chemical processes occurring in micromixers and microreactors. Therefore, there is a growing interest in performing in-line and on-line analyses of chemical and/or biochemical processes. This creates tremendous opportunities for the incorporation of spectroscopic detection techniques into production and processing lines in various industries. In this work, an overview of current applications of ultraviolet–visible, infrared, Raman spectroscopy, NMR, MALDI-TOF-MS, and ESI-MS for monitoring (bio)catalytic processes in continuously operated microreactor systems is presented. The manuscript includes a description of the advantages and disadvantages of the analytical methods listed, with particular emphasis on the chemometric methods used for spectroscopic data analysis.

Abstract
Modular milli- and micro-structured systems represent a promising approach to exploit the potential of micro-process technology, including precise reaction control and scale-up. A major drawback of micro-structured devices is fouling and mixing mechanisms need to be investigated phenomenologically to better understand the processes that lead to fouling. Previous work was conducted to resolve 3D concentration fields by means of Laser-Induced Fluorescence (LIF) using a Confocal Laser Scanning Microscope (CLSM) (Frey et al., J Flow Chem, 2021, 11, 599–609). While the CLSM-LIF method yields detailed insight into concentration fields down to a few micrometers, it is limited to stationary flow structures only. Aubin et al. (Chemical Engineering Science, 2010, 65, 2065–2093) give a comprehensive review of methods to analyze mixing behavior. Most recent optical measurement methods rely on the detection of a single compound in mixtures. In case of reactive mixing, Tthe state of the art procedures to locally visualize micro mixing relies on tracking a reaction product which forms on molecular scale. In literature, only small micro-structures are manufactured from transparent materials, however larger milli-structures often lack optical accesses with sufficient quality. Selective laser-induced etching (SLE) is a new technique which enables the fabrication of larger milli-structures in transparent materials that are relevant for industry-scale applications. This work develops a method based on a concept of Kexel et al. (Chemie Ingenieur Technik, 2021, 93, 830–837) visualizing the selectivity of a competitive-consecutive gas-liquid reaction in a Taylor bubble flow. The main goal of this work is the analysis of the absorbance spectra of bromothymol blue (BTB) at different pH values in a miscible liquid-liquid system in a fused silica split-and-recombine mixer. The milli-structure of the mixer is manufactured by means of SLE. Backlight at different wavelengths is pulsed matching the recording frequency. In contrast to conventional UV/Vis setups, the absorbance is recorded locally within the mixer. The proposed method yields the 2D concentration distribution of multiple species with high spatial resolution. The spatially resolved reactant and product distribution unveils micro mixing and can yield important information about local root causes of fouling.

Abstract
Over the last decade, a multitude of synthesis strategies has been reported for the production of high-quality nanoparticles. Wet-chemical methods are generally the most efficient synthesis procedures since high control of crystallinity and physicochemical properties can be achieved. However, a number of challenges remain from inadequate reaction control during the nanocrystallization process; specifically variability, selectivity, scalability and safety. These shortcomings complicate the synthesis, make it difficult to obtain a uniform product with desired properties, and present serious limitations for scaling the production of colloidal nanocrystals from academic studies to industrial applications. Continuous flow reactors based on microfluidic principles offer potential solutions and advantages. The reproducibility of reaction conditions in microfluidics and therefore product quality have proved to exceed those obtained by batch processing. Considering that in nanoparticles' production not only is it crucial to control the particle size distribution, but also the shape and chemical composition, this review presents an overview of the current state-of-the-art in synthesis of anisotropic and faceted nanostructures by using microfluidics techniques. The review surveys the available tools that enable shape and chemical control, including secondary growth methods, active segmented flow, and photoinduced shape conversion. In addition, emphasis is placed on the available approaches developed to tune the structure and chemical composition of nanomaterials in order to produce complex heterostructures in a continuous and reproducible fashion.

Abstract
Nanotheranostic materials (NTMs) shed light on the mechanisms responsible for complex diseases such as cancer because they enable making a diagnosis, monitoring the disease progression, and applying a targeted therapy simultaneously. However, several issues such as the reproducibility and mass production of NTMs hamper their application for clinical practice. To address these issues and facilitate the clinical application of NTMs, microfluidic systems have been increasingly used. This perspective provides a glimpse into the current state-of-art of NTM research, emphasizing the methods currently employed at each development stage of NTMs and the related open problems. This work reviews microfluidic technologies used to develop NTMs, ranging from the fabrication and testing of a single NTM up to their manufacturing on a large scale. Ultimately, a step-by-step vision on the future development of NTMs for clinical practice enabled by microfluidics techniques is provided.

Abstract
Heterocyclic compounds are among the most prestigious and valuable chemical molecules with diverse and magnificent applications in various sciences. Due to the remarkable and numerous properties of the heterocyclic frameworks, the development of efficient and convenient synthetic methods for the preparation of such outstanding compounds is of great importance. Undoubtedly, catalysis has a conspicuous role in modern chemical synthesis and green chemistry. Therefore, when designing a chemical reaction, choosing and or preparing powerful and environmentally benign simple catalysts or complicated catalytic systems for an acceleration of the chemical reaction is a pivotal part of work for synthetic chemists. Chitosan, as a biocompatible and biodegradable pseudo-natural polysaccharide is one of the excellent choices for the preparation of suitable catalytic systems due to its unique properties. In this review paper, every effort has been made to cover all research articles in the field of one-pot synthesis of heterocyclic frameworks in the presence of chitosan-based catalytic systems, which were published roughly by the first quarter of 2020. It is hoped that this review paper can be a little help to synthetic scientists, methodologists, and catalyst designers, both on the laboratory and industrial scales.

Abstract
Quantitatively predicting the reactivity of dynamic covalent reaction is essential to understand and rationally design complex structures and reaction networks. Herein, the reactivity of aldehydes and amines in various rapid imine formation in aqueous solution by microfluidic NMR spectroscopy was quantified. Investigation of reaction kinetics allowed to quantify the forward rate constants k+ by an empirical equation, of which three independent parameters were introduced as reactivity parameters of aldehydes (SE , E) and amines (N). Furthermore, these reactivity parameters were successfully used to predict the unknown forward rate constants of imine formation. Finally, two competitive reaction networks were rationally designed based on the proposed reactivity parameters. Our work has demonstrated the capability of microfluidic NMR spectroscopy in quantifying the kinetics of label-free chemical reactions, especially rapid reactions that are complete in minutes.

Abstract
A PDMS (Polydimethylsiloxane) microfluidic channel coupled with UV-vis fibre-optic spectrometer and new synthesized colorimetric probe was integrated into an optofluidic based Lab-on-a-chip device for highly sensitive and real-time quantitative measurements of fluoride ions (F¯). An 'S' shaped microchannel in a microfluidic device was designed to act as microreactor to facilitate the continuous reaction between synthetized colorimetric probe (sensor) and F¯ ions. Following this reaction, the UV-vis optical probe in the downstream detection zone of the microfluidic device was used to capture their spectrum and present as F¯ concentration in real-time conditions. An initial study of the developed colorimetric probe with multi-colour change with several binding and chromophore groups such as -OH, -NH and -NO2 groups confirmed its high sensitivity and selectivity for F¯ ions with a detection limit of 0.79 ppm. The performance of the developed optofluidic device was evaluated for the selective, sensitive detection of F¯ ions including real samples out-performing conventional methods. The technology has advantages such as low sample consumption, rapid analysis, high sensitivity and portability. Presented new Lab-on-a-chip device provides many competitive advantages for the real-time analysis of F¯ ions needed across broad sectors.

Abstract
Microreactors have garnered widespread attention for their tunability and precise control of synthetic parameters to efficiently produce target species. Despite associated advances, a lack of online detection and optimization methods has stalled the progression of microfluidic reactors. Here we employ and characterize a total internal reflection transient absorption microscopy (TIRTAM) instrument to image excited state dynamics on a continuous flow device. The experiments presented demonstrate the capability to discriminate between different chromophores as well as in differentiating the effects of local chemical environments that a chromophore experiences. This work presents the first such online transient absorption measurements and provides a new direction for the advancement and optimization of chemical reactions in microfluidic devices.

Abstract
AbstractGas-liquid-liquid flow in microreactors holds great potential towards process intensification of operation in multiphase systems, particularly by a precise control over the three-phase contact patterns and the associated mass transfer enhancement. This work reviews the manipulation of gas-liquid-liquid three-phase flow in microreactors for carrying out efficient reaction processes, including gas-liquid-liquid reactions with catalysts residing in either liquid phase, coupling of a gas-liquid reaction with the liquid-liquid extraction, inert gas assisted liquid-liquid reactions and particle synthesis under three-phase flow. Microreactors are shown to be able to provide well-defined flow patterns and enhanced gas-liquid/liquid-liquid mass transfer rates towards the optimized system performance. The interplay between hydrodynamics and mass transfer, as well as its influence on the overall microreactor system performance is discussed. Meanwhile, future perspectives regarding the scale-up of gas-liquid-liquid microreactors in order to meet the industrial needs and their potential applications especially in biobased chemicals and fuels synthesis are further addressed.

Abstract
In this review article, we discuss the latest advances and future perspectives of microfluidics for micro/nanoscale catalyst particle synthesis and analysis. In the first section, we present an overview of the different methods to synthesize catalysts making use of microfluidics and in the second section, we critically review catalyst particle characterization using microfluidics. The strengths and challenges of these approaches are highlighted with various showcases selected from the recent literature. In the third section, we give our opinion on the future perspectives of the combination of catalytic nanostructures and microfluidics. We anticipate that in the synthesis and analysis of individual catalyst particles, generation of higher throughput and better understanding of transport inside individual porous catalyst particles are some of the most important benefits of microfluidics for catalyst research.

Abstract
We present a novel setup that can be used for the in-line monitoring of solid-catalyzed gas-liquid reactions. The method combines the high sensitivity and resolution of a stripline NMR detector with a microfluidic network that can withstand elevated pressures. In our setup we dissolve hydrogen gas in the solvent, then flow it with the added substrate through a catalyst cartridge, and finally flow the reaction mixture directly through the stripline NMR detector. The method is quantitative and can be used to determine the solubility of hydrogen gas in liquids; it allows in-line monitoring of hydrogenation reactions and can be used to determine the reaction kinetics of these reactions. In this work, as proof of concept we demonstrate the optimization of the Pd-catalyzed hydrogenation reactions of styrene, phenylacetylene, cyclohexene, and hex-5-en-2-one in a microfluidic context.

Abstract
Microfluidics is an appealing analytical tool in the global effort to close the nuclear fuel cycle. Using a microfluidic chip permits the analysis of greatly reduced sample volumes compared to what is necessary for traditional analytical methods. There is a commensurate reduction in disposal volume and cost. The development of novel sensors is necessary to take full advantage of the microchip configuration, where optical-spectroscopy-based approaches offer a powerful route to characterize chemical composition. This study uses simultaneously applied UV-vis and micro-Raman spectroscopies adapted to function on the microscale to analyze in situ both the Nd3+ (UV-vis-active) and HNO3 (Raman-active) concentrations in the same sample. An adjustable translation platform was designed to hold the micro-Raman probe above and perpendicular to the chip face and the UV-vis probe in the plane of the chip. These complimentary spectral techniques when processed through multivariate partial least-squares (PLS) models gave an accurate picture of the widely varying solution concentrations as a function of time for each solution component. Solution matrix effects can drastically alter analyte signatures as measured by both UV-vis absorbance and Raman spectroscopy. PLS methods successfully modeled these spectral changes and accurately measured concentrations of components of interest within the microfluidic chip.

Abstract
We present an in-depth study of the acetylation of benzyl alcohol in the presence of N, N-diisopropylethylamine (DIPEA) by nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) monitoring of the reaction from 1.5 s to several minutes. We have adapted the NMR setup to be compatible to microreactor technology, scaling down the typical sample volume of commercial NMR probes (500 μL) to a microfluidic stripline setup with 150 nL detection volume. Inline spectra are obtained to monitor the kinetics and unravel the reaction mechanism of this industrially relevant reaction. The experiments are combined with conventional 2D NMR measurements to identify the reaction products. In addition, we replace DIPEA with triethylamine and pyridine to validate the reaction mechanism for different amine catalysts. In all three acetylation reactions, we find that the acetyl ammonium ion is a key intermediate. The formation of ketene is observed during the first minutes of the reaction when tertiary amines were present. The pyridine-catalyzed reaction proceeds via a different mechanism.

Abstract
The multistep flow synthesis of complex molecules has gained momentum over the last few years. A wide range of reaction types and conditions have been integrated seamlessly on a single platform including in-line separation as well as monitoring. Beyond merely getting considered as 'flow version' of conventional 'one-pot synthesis', multistep flow synthesis has become the next generation tool for creating libraries of new molecules. Here we give a more 'engineering' look at the possibility of developing a 'unified multistep flow synthesis platform'. A detailed analysis of various scenarios is presented considering 4 different classes of drugs already reported in the literature. The possible complexities that an automated and controlled platform needs to handle are also discussed in detail. Three different design approaches are proposed: (i) one molecule at a time, (ii) many molecules at a time and (iii) cybernetic approach. Each approach would lead to the effortless integration of different synthesis stages and also at different synthesis scales. While one may expect such a platform to operate like a 'driverless car' or a 'robo chemist' or a 'transformer', in reality, such an envisaged system would be much more complex than these examples.

Abstract
Abstract
Process intensification (PI) is a rapidly growing field of research and industrial development that has already created many innovations in chemical process industry. PI is directed toward substantially smaller, cleaner, more energy-efficient technology. Furthermore, PI aims at safer and sustainable technological developments. Its tools are reduction of the number of devices (integration of several functionalities in one apparatus), improving heat and mass transfer by advanced mixing technologies and shorter diffusion pathways, miniaturization, novel energy techniques, new separation approaches, integrated optimization and control strategies. This review discusses many of the recent developments in PI. Starting from fundamental definitions, microfluidic technology, mixing, modern distillation techniques, membrane separation, continuous chromatography, and application of gravitational, electric, and magnetic fields will be described.

Abstract
The operando study of CO2 hydrogenation is fundamental for a more rational optimisation of heterogeneous catalyst and reactor designs. To further complement the established efficiency of microreactors in reaction screening and bridge the operating and optical gaps, a micro-view-cell is presented for Raman microscopy at extreme conditions with minimum flow interference for genuine reaction analysis. Based on a flat sapphire window unit sealed in a plug flow-type enclosure holding the sample, the cell features unique 14 mm working distance and 0.36 numerical aperture and resists 400 °C and 500 bars. The use of the cell as an in situ tool for fast process monitoring and surface catalyst characterisation is demonstrated with phase behaviour and chemical analysis of the methanol synthesis over a commercial Cu/ZnO/Al2O3 catalyst.

Abstract
Flow chemistry involves the use of channels or tubing to conduct a reaction in a continuous stream rather than in a flask. Flow equipment provides chemists with unique control over reaction parameters enhancing reactivity or in some cases enabling new reactions. This relatively young technology has received a remarkable amount of attention in the past decade with many reports on what can be done in flow. Until recently, however, the question, "Should we do this in flow?" has merely been an afterthought. This review introduces readers to the basic principles and fundamentals of flow chemistry and critically discusses recent flow chemistry accounts.

Abstract
Condensation promotes CO2 hydrogenation to CH3 OH beyond equilibrium through in situ product separation. Although primordial for catalyst and reactor design, triggering conditions as well as the impact on sub-equilibrium reaction behaviour remain unclear. Herein we used an in-house designed micro-view-cell to gain chemical and physical insights into reaction and phase behaviour under high-pressure conditions over a commercial Cu/ZnO/Al2 O3 catalyst. Raman microscopy and video monitoring, combined with online gas chromatography analysis, allowed the complete characterisation of the reaction bulk up to 450 bar (1 bar=0.1 MPa) and 350 °C. Dew points of typical effluent streams related to a parametric study suggest that the improving reaction performance and reverting selectivities observed from 230 °C strongly correlate with (i) a regime transition from kinetic to thermodynamic, and (ii) a phase transition from a single supercritical to a biphasic reaction mixture. Our results advance a rationale behind transitioning CH3 OH selectivities for an improved understanding of CO2 hydrogenation under high pressure.

Abstract
Recent advances in the use of flow chemistry with in-line and on-line analysis by NMR are presented. The use of macro- and microreactors, coupled with standard and custom made NMR probes involving microcoils, incorporated into high resolution and benchtop NMR instruments is reviewed. Some recent selected applications have been collected, including synthetic applications, the determination of the kinetic and thermodynamic parameters and reaction optimization, even in single experiments and on the μL scale. Finally, software that allows automatic reaction monitoring and optimization is discussed.

Abstract
We present a microfluidic system, seamlessly integrating microflow and microbatch synthesis with a HPLC/nano-ESI-MS functionality on a single glass chip. The microfluidic approach allows to efficiently steer and dispense sample streams down to the nanoliter-range for studying reactions in quasi real-time. In a proof-of-concept study, the system was applied to explore amino-catalyzed reactions, including asymmetric iminium-catalyzed Friedel-Crafts alkylations in microflow and micro confined reaction vessels.
