Addressing Reproducibility Challenges in High-Throughput Photochemistry.

Light-mediated reactions have emerged as an indispensable tool in organic synthesis and drug discovery, enabling novel transformations and providing access to previously unexplored chemical space. Despite their widespread application in both academic and industrial research, the utilization of light as an energy source still encounters challenges regarding reproducibility and data robustness. Herein we present a comprehensive head-to-head comparison of commercially available batch photoreactors, alongside the introduction of the use of batch and flow photoreactors in parallel synthesis. Hence, we aim to establish a reliable and consistent platform for light-mediated reactions in high-throughput mode. Herein, we showcase the identification of several platforms aligning with the rigorous demands for efficient and robust high-throughput experimentation screenings and library synthesis.
