Microwave-assisted organic synthesis has been widely studied and deliberated, opening up some controversial issues as well. Nowadays, microwave chemistry is a mature technology that well demonstrated in many cases with numerous advantages terms of the reaction rate yield. The strategies toward scaling find an ally continuous-flow reactor comparing dielectric conductive heating.
