Supporting‐Electrolyte‐Free Electrochemical Methoxymethylation of Alcohols Using a 3D‐Printed Electrosynthesis Continuous Flow Cell System

Abstract: We describe the development of a novel low‐cost small‐footprint 3D‐printed electrosynthesis continuous flow cell system that was designed and adapted to fit a commercially available Electrasyn 2.0. The utility and effectiveness of the combined flow/electrochemistry system over the batch process was demonstrated in the development of an improved and supporting‐electrolyte‐free version of our anodic methoxymethylation of alcohols.

“…Conversely, continuous flow electrochemical reactors generate a homogeneous electric field throughout the entire solution as it is entirely situated between the electrodes. Several groups have developed their own continuous flow reactors 71,[85][86][87][88][89][90][91][92][93][94][95][96][97][98][99] with commercial reactors also being available (Fig. 5e).…”

“…Low expenses and wide availability of printers render the FDM particularly suitable for the manufacture of cells. Most frequently used filaments are polylactic acid (PLA), [8 , 7 , [14] , [15] , [16] , [17] , [18] , [19] acrylonitrile butadiene styrene (ABS), [20] , [21] , [22] , [23] , [24] , [25] , [26] , [27] , [28] , [29] polypropylene [30 32] , and polyesters [33] . Cells manufactured by FDM 3DP involve multitude of functionalities and have found use in a broad range of electrochemical processes and applications, which are summarized in Table 1 .…”
