Versatile Methods to Dispense Submilligram Quantities of Solids Using Chemical-Coated Beads for High-Throughput Experimentation

September 3, 2019

Organic Process Research & Development Journal

High-throughput experimentation is a technique for screening multiple reaction conditions in parallel at micro or nanoscale without depleting precious starting materials. However, assembling a comprehensive screening set often involves the distribution of large number of solid reagents with diverse physical properties in small quantities. Automated solid dispensing, especially at submilligram scale, has long been a challenge with no practical and reliable solutions. This paper describes the use of our newly developed chemical-coated beads technology to provide a universal approach to the solid handling problem. This technology, when combined with an automated solid dispensing platform or calibrated scoops, can dispense submilligram quantities of a variety of solids with efficiency and adequate accuracy.

Properties and Applications of Hydrogen-Bond Rich Iridium (III) Complexes

Iridium (III) complexes are used for a wide variety of applications owing to their thermal stability, tuneable electronic properties and strong photoluminescent character. Iridium (III) complexes can be structurally altered to change the wavelengths of light they absorb and emit making them desirable for organic light emitting diodes (OLEDs) and photocatalysis.
