High Throughput Reaction Screening with Nanomoles of Solid Reagents Coated on Glass Beads

May 1, 2019

Angewandte Chemie Journal

Technologies that enable rapid screening of diverse reaction conditions are of critical importance to methodology development and reaction optimization especially when molecules of high complexity and scarcity are involved. The lack of a general solid dispensing method for chemical reagents on micro- and nanomole scale prevents the full utilization of reaction screening technologies. We herein report the development of a technology in which glass beads coated with solid chemical reagents (ChemBeads) enable the delivery of nanomole quantities of solid chemical reagents efficiently. By exploring the concept of preferred screening sets, the flexibility and generality of this technology for high throughput reaction screening was validated.

Autonomous Synthesis and Inverse Design of Electrochromic Polymers with High Efficiency and Accuracy

The design and synthesis of functional polymers, aimed at targeted properties through specific structures, have long been challenged by their complex and often nonlinear structure− property relationships. Key processes, including knowledge accumulation for predictive design and experimental refinement and validation, are traditionally labor-insensitive and timeconsuming, making it difficult to balance accuracy and efficiency.

Localization, inspection, and reasoning (LIRA) module for autonomous workflows in self-driving laboratories

Self-driving labs (SDLs) combine robotic automation with artificial intelligence (AI) to allow autonomous, high-throughput experimentation. However, robot manipulation in most SDL workflows operates in an open-loop manner, lacking real-time error detection and error correction. This can reduce reliability and overall efficiency.

An Automation Platform for the Chemoenzymatic Synthesis of Complex Sulfated and Branched Glycans

Diverse collections of well-defined glycans are needed to investigate the molecular mechanisms by which these biomolecules mediate biological and disease processes. Several automation approaches have been introduced to accelerate the enzymatic synthesis of complex glycans. These methodologies have, however, provided only relatively simple oligosaccharides due to limitations of glycosyl transferase selectivity.
