Chemical Synthesis Without Round Bottom Flask with Reactor – OptiMax Product Introduction – en
Channel: METTLER TOLEDO AutoChem
Date: 2011-04-15

For over 50 years, chemists have been doing organic synthesis in fundamentally the same way. Running reaction with cumbersome oil and ice baths, or bulky cryostats, make the process labor intensive, error prone, and sometimes dangerous. Today's business environment is driving the need for cost-competitive R&D. Making timely, correct decisions is important to complete projects faster, and to bring new products to the market first. OptiMax chemical synthesis reactor redefines the way organic chemists do synthesis, and takes R&D productivity to a level previously unobtainable. https://www.mt.com/us/en/home/products/L1_AutochemProducts/Chemical-Synthesis-and-Process-Development-Lab-Reactors/Synthesis-Reactor-Systems.html?GLO_YT_Autochem_OTH_Youtube_Autochem

OptiMax chemical synthesis reactor doesn't need a round bottom flask, ice bath, a heat mantle, or a cryostat. It's easy to operate, and allows chemists to run reactions from -40 – 100 °C in a variety of different reactors, from 250 ml to 1 L. OptiMax is operated with a smart, intuitive touch screen, making training unnecessary. Setting temperature of stirring speed is simple. Thanks to the large, illuminated window, the chemist can observe changes in the reaction at any time. Detailed experiment information is stored and displayed as the experiment proceeds. OptiMax makes nighttime productive too. Experiments can be programmed for completion safely around the clock, and data logging ensures that nothing is missed. OptiMax is reliable; it provides accurate, reproducible, and information-rich data. Experiments and results become traceable, enabling the development of safe, scalable, and robust processes, while reducing the number of experiments required.

OptiMax is part of METTLER TOLEDO's platform of chemical synthesis reactors, developed by organic chemists, for organic chemists. It's versatile, improves personal safety, and is fun to work with.

Chemical synthesis is performed without a round bottom flask with chemical reactor systems. OptiMax synthesis chemical reactor system redefines how organic chemists do chemical synthesis and takes R&D to a level previous unattainable. OptiMax chemical reactor system does not need an ice bath, heating metal, cryostat, or round bottom flask for organic chemistry.
