RR99610 - GreenHouse Plus Parallel Synthesiser
Thank you for purchasing your Green ouse Plus Parallel Synthesiser
Please read this Instruction Manual thoroughly before operating your unit.
Introduction
The Green ouse Plus brings all the benefits in productivity of multiple parallel synthesis to the chemist
at a fraction of the cost of automated systems.
The patented GreenHouse Plus allows chemists to perform 24 reactions in parallel, with a reaction volume of 0.5 to 7ml
per reaction tube. The GreenHouse Plus’s removable reaction block holds 24 glass reaction tubes and has the same
footprint as a standard micro titer plate. This allows the rapid transfer of samples to and from micro titer plates
with a multi-channel pipettor or robotic system. The reaction block is also designed to fit directly into leading
vacuum centrifuges including Genevac.
The GreenHouse Plus is designed to mount on a standard KA or Carousel stirring hotplate, utilising the
single rotating magnetic field to vigorously stir individual PTFE magnetic stirring bars in each
of the 24 glass reaction tubes.
The stirring hotplate provides even heating to all 24 glass reaction tubes (ambient to +160°C solution temperature),
with an accuracy of +/-0.5°C achievable when using the optional fuzzy logic digital temperature controller.
The combined reflux and additions head allows for convenient additions or withdrawals from individual reaction
tubes whilst under reflux and whilst maintaining an inert atmosphere.
Highly effective refluxing within all 24 individual glass reaction tubes is provided by the aluminium head
with it’s water cooling and nickel condensing fingers.
The head features quick release connectors for easy connection to your water supply, and an easy to use septum
mat for additions and withdrawals.
The head features a nickel plated safety pressure relief valve that vents at 4 to 6psi.
Cooled reactions to -70°C are achieved using the optional GreenHouse Cooling Reservoir filled with acetone
and dry ice (or other solvent and dry ice combinations). The removable cooling reservoir fits between the
stirrer and GreenHouse assembly, allowing simultaneous stirring and cooling.
A neat inert gas system with one inlet/outlet for vacuum and inert gas, allows reactions to be performed under
inert atmospheres with ease. Also because there is no flow of gas through the chamber there is minimal
evaporation of solvents during synthesis.
