- isomerization of 3-benzylidene-indolin-2-ones using a microfluidic photo-reactor.

Here, we report controlled - isomeric motion of the functionalized 3-benzylidene-indolin-2-ones under various solvents, temperature, light sources, and most importantly effective enhancement of light irradiance in microfluidic photoreactor conditions. Stabilization of the - isomeric motion is failed in batch process, which might be due to the exponential decay of light intensity, variable irradiation, low mixing, low heat exchange, low photon flux This photo-μ-flow light driven motion is further extended to the establishment of a photostationary state under solar light irradiation.
