6. Synthesis in supercritical carbon dioxide
-
Alexander Marziale
Abstract
Over the course of the past two decades supercritical carbon dioxide (scCO2) has found numerous applications in both industry and academia. The most prominent being supercritical fluid extraction (SFE) and supercritical fluid chromatography (SFC). Beyond that supercritical fluids in general and scCO2 in particular represent intriguing alternatives as reaction media for chemical synthesis. Supercritical carbon dioxide is abundantly available, inexpensive, non-toxic, non-flammable and offers the perspective of simplified catalyst recovery as well as product isolation. These favorable properties have sparked vivid research activities and ultimately resulted in a number of industrial-scale synthetic processes.
