Photoreactor in organic synthesis lab for photoredox catalysis

Photoredox catalysis is a powerful tool in organic chemical synthesis that utilizes visible light to power a chemical reaction. Widespread adoption of visible light photoredox catalysis has been dependent on access to photocatalysts and a reliable light source. We’re pleased to support your photocatalysis endeavors to create new bonds and rapidly assemble complex products.

Chemists have long struggled with reproducibility in photoredox chemistry. Both varied reaction setups and individual reactions performed with the same setup can be tricky. Our new labware seeks to alleviate these issues by providing photoreactors for each stage of reaction development, while ensuring high levels of consistency across photocatalytic reactions and between runs.
