An automated, droplet-flow microfluidic system explores and optimizes Pd-catalyzed Suzuki-Miyaura cross-coupling reactions. A smart optimal DoE-based algorithm is implemented to increase the turnover number and yield of the catalytic system considering both discrete variables-palladacycle and ligand-and continuous variables-temperature, time, and loading-simultaneously. The use of feedback allows for experiments to be run with catalysts and under conditions more likely to produce an optimum; con ...[more]
