Organic
lithium reaction is a typical low temperature
and strong exothermic reaction in pharmaceutical and fine
chemical industry. However, organic lithium reagents are highly active and will
have a strong exothermic reaction when
meeting water or oxygen, so they need to be dealt
with at very low temperature
in batch reactors and require feed
rate control. There are also problems such as low
reaction selectivity, poor control and poor safety. The application of micro
channel reactor brought continuous operation as
well as essential improvements in the
yield, energy consumption, safety and other
aspects.
