Semi-continuous multi-step synthesis of lamivudine
Contributor(s):: Mandala, Devender, Chadaa, Sravanthi, Watts, Paul
We report the first continuous flow synthesis of lamivudine, an antiretroviral drug used in the treatment of HIV/AIDS and hepatitis B. The key intermediate (5-acetoxy oxathiolane) was prepared by an integrated two step continuous flow process from L-menthyl glyoxalate hydrate in a single solvent,...

Laboratory of the future: a modular flow platform with multiple integrated PAT tools for multistep reactions
| Contributor(s):: Sagmeister, Peter, Hone, Christopher, Williams, Jason D, Kappe, Oliver
Currently, the monitoring of multistep continuous flow processes by multiple analytical sources is still seen as a resource intensive and specialized activity. In this article, the coupling of a modular microreactor platform with real-time monitoring by inline IR and NMR, in addition to online...
