In this article, we discuss how our team at Snapdragon Chemistry, in collaboration with Qpex Biopharma, Inc., designed and built a convenient development-scale reactor (0.44 mol/h) to prepare diazomethane from N-methyl-N-nitroso-p-toluenesulfonamide (MNTS) in ∼80% yield. Diazomethane (CH2N2) made with this reactor is extracted into nitrogen gas from the liquid reaction mixture, which effectively removes it from reagents and byproducts that may interfere in subsequent reactions. Vertically oriented tubular reactors were used to produce and consume diazomethane in situ.
Key features of this reactor include:
The reactor demonstration generated CH2N2 that was used in a connected continuous reactor. Our team evaluated esterification reactions and a continuous Pd-catalyzed cyclopropanation reaction with the reactor and were able to achieve high conversion with 1.5 and 4.1 equiv of MNTS precursor, respectively.
