Development of an Automated Feedback Loop to Accelerate Reaction Screening

In a traditional high throughput experiment, the chemist will investigate many categorical variables (e.g., base, solvent, catalyst) while limiting continuous variables (e.g., time, temperature, stoichiometry) to a single or a few discrete values.

The presentation describes the development of an automated feedback loop for the Freeslate Core Module screening platform which allows for simultaneous screening of continuous variables. When running this logic loop, each reaction is sampled and then on the basis of this in-process analysis, the reaction can be moved to different temperature zones, have reagents added, or be left to continue under the initial conditions. By implementing the automated loop, data can be generated in a single screen that would typically require multiple rounds of screening. As currently implemented, the logic loop will support up to 48 experiments.

Key Learning Objectives

  • Understanding the capabilities and limitations of any automated system is crucial to the generation of reproducible data.
  • Inclusion of continuous variables in a screen will increase the number of potential hits.
  • By implementing a single feedback loop in a screen, it is possible to generate data that would require multiple rounds of more traditional screening.
