Continuous-Flow Production of Photocatalytically Active Titanium Dioxide Nanocrystals and Its Application to the Photocatalytic Addition of N, N-Dimethylaniline to N-Methylmaleimide

A solvothermal continuous-flow method for the scalable and shape tunable synthesis of rod-like/spherical TiO2 nanocrystals (NCs) has been developed. The as-prepared colloidal NCs show photocatalytic activity in an addition-cyclization cascade under continuous-flow conditions.
