Photocyanation of Aromatic Hydrocarbons Across Oil/Water Interface in Polymer Microfluidic Chips

Abstract

We explored an oil/water interracial photocyanation reaction of pyrene (PyH) by using polymer microchannel chips: width of 100 μm, depth of 20 μm. As a typical experiment, an aqueous NaCN solution and a propylene carbonate solution of PyH and 1,4-dicyanobenzene were brought together into a Y-structured microchannel chip by pressure-driven flow. Light radiation onto the whole of the channel chip resulted in formation of 1-cyanopyrene (PyCN). The absolute PyCN yield as high as 78% was attained under the optimum conditions.
