Research

Research in the Kappe group focuses on enabling technologies in organic synthesis and related areas. Of primary current interest is the use of microwave dielectric heating and continuous flow/microreactor technology. We are particularly interested to improve existing and/or develop new synthetic procedures (in many cases of significant industrial interest) using both of these technologies, either separately, or in combination with each other. Emphasis is also placed on the sustainability of the developed procedures.
FLOW CHEMISTRY
The use of microreactors and contnuous flow equipment in general has opened up new horizons for synthetic organic chemistry and the chemical manufacturing industry. Microreaction technology is generally defined as the continuous flow processing of reactions within structured channels of 10-500 micrometer diameter. Because of the high surface-to-volume ratio in microchannels of this type, heat transfer is very efficient and reaction temperatures in microreactors can be changed efficiently by application or removal of heat. In addition, enhanced mass transfer characteristics, safer synthesis of dangerous compounds, isolation of air and moisture sensitive chemistry, and reduction of hazardous waste can all be realized using microreactors. The ability to efficiently optimize reaction conditions by control of residence time and rapid experimentation also add value to the technology by shortening production development lifecycles. A particularly attractive feature of microreaction technology is the ease with which reaction conditions can be scaled - without the need for reoptimization - through the operation of multiple systems in parallel (numbering-up, scaling-out), thereby achieving production scale capabilities.
Emphasis in our work in the area of flow chemistry is placed on process intensification techniques, in particular working in high-temperature/high-pressure environments (Novel Process Windows), often dealing with extremely hazardous chemical transformations. We also have an interest in working with multiphasic (gas/liquid, gas/liquid/solid) flow regimes.

Microwave Chemistry
The group has a 15 year experience in microwave chemistry in a variety of different disciplines, including organic synthesis, solid-phase peptide chemistry, the generation of nanomaterials, and proteomics applications. Since 1999 more than 150 publications including several review articles and books were published. We are able to perform microwave-assisted reactions from the microliter scale using microtiter plates up to the liter scale employing suitable large scale equipment.
Of particular interest over the past years was the investigation of so-called microwave effects where we have published extensively. For recent reviews on this topic see the following references and follow this link:

 C. Oliver Kappe of the Karl-Franzens-University, Graz has found (J. Org. Chem. 2007, 72, 4440. DOI: 10.1021/jo070408f) that thioamides such as 14 couple smoothly under Pd catalysis with areneboronic acids, even more rapidly than the usually reactive alkenyl bromide. Hans-Dieter Arndt of the Universität Dortmund has developed (J. Org. Chem. 2007, 72, 4205. DOI: 10.1021/jo0703505) a hetero Diels-Alder approach to pyridines, based on the addition of alkynes such as 16 to the diene 17. Richmond Sarpong of the University of California, Berkeley, has devised (Org. Lett. 2007, 9, 2167. DOI: 10.1021/ol070658i) an elegant Pt-catalyzed rearrangement of alkynyl aziridines such as 19, giving, after sulfinate elimination, pyridines such as 20.
