Rapid Multigram-Scale End-to-End Continuous-Flow Synthesis of Sulfonylurea Antidiabetes Drugs: Gliclazide, Chlorpropamide, and Tolbutamide

Cloudius R. Sagandira et al.

Summary: A multigram-scale robust, efficient, and safe end-to-end continuous-flow process for the synthesis of diabetes sulfonylurea drugs gliclazide, chlorpropamide, and tolbutamide was reported. The drugs were produced through the treatment of an amine with a haloformate and subsequent reaction with a sulfonamide. The use of N-substituted carbamates as safe alternatives to hazardous isocyanates allowed for high yields and production throughput.

Halogen-Lithium Exchange of Sensitive (Hetero)aromatic Halides under Barbier Conditions in a Continuous Flow Set-Up

Niels Weidmann et al.

Summary: This method involves a halogen-lithium exchange reaction of (hetero)aromatic halides in the presence of various electrophiles, resulting in the formation of polyfunctional (hetero)arenes. The use of a flow set-up allows for the instant trapping of organolithiums with electrophiles, enabling the functionalization of (hetero)arenes containing highly sensitive functional groups such as esters that are not tolerated in batch conditions.

(2-Ethylhexyl)sodium: A Hexane-Soluble Reagent for Br/Na-Exchanges and Directed Metalations in Continuous Flow

Johannes H. Harenberg et al.

Summary: The study demonstrates a novel method for the on-demand generation of (2-ethylhexyl)sodium from 3-(chloromethyl)heptane using a sodium-packed-bed reactor under continuous flow conditions, producing a solution free of elemental sodium suitable for various synthetic applications. The new procedure eliminates the need for storing alkylsodium and minimizes the handling of metallic sodium, enhancing safety in laboratory experiments. The (2-ethylhexyl)sodium reagent proves to be highly versatile, allowing for in-line Br/Na-exchanges and directed sodiations with subsequent trapping of arylsodium intermediates with various electrophiles in batch reactions.
