Personal Reaction Station

The Personal Reaction Station has every feature needed for lead development and high throughput applications.

The reactor provides precise temperature control, powerful magnetic stirring, and an inert atmosphere for each reaction tube.

Reactions are run in 50 mL glass tubes that fit inside a heated and cooled reactor base.

Six built-in magnetic stirrers provide uniform stirring even for viscous and heterogeneous reactions.

A reflux condenser plate surrounds the midsection of each reaction tube providing for a continuous reflux with no cross contamination or solvent loss.

Reactors connect to an inert gas manifold through separate needle valves and quick disconnect fittings, allowing individual reactors to be removed without disturbing the atmosphere in other reactors.

All reactors have Teflon septum needle ports for adding reagents and for sampling the reactor content.

Magnetic Stirring

Six built-in
magnetic stirrers

Providing each reaction tube with its own magnetic stirrer assures continuous and even stirring which is not possible when a single magnetic stirrer is used.

Speeds: 60-1000 rpm.

Temperature Control
with Reflux Head

Temperature range: -80 to 130°C

Heating is built into the Personal Reaction Station which is regulated by J-KEM’s digital temperature controller. Reaction temperatures are maintained with 0.1o C regulation. Cooling is provide by a circulating chiller or tap water. The Personal Reaction Station includes a built-in water cooled reflux head for continuous reflux with no loss of volatile solvents. A digital 100 Hr. timer turns heating OFF (or ON) at a user set time.

Inert Atmosphere

Add & Remove tubes while maintaining inert atmosphere

Separate stainless steel needle valves turn inert gas flow ON/OFF to individual reaction tubes. Tubes can be added and removed without disturbing the atmosphere in any other reactor.
