Fig. 3: Tunable TOF and selectivity.

a Catalyst film thickness dependent and (b) flow-rate (F mL/min) dependent TOF and selectivity (SEt/t) profiles for the Et-Acr and t-But-Acr in cross-flow microfluidic reaction. All reactions are done at 70 °C using 1 mmol of benzaldehyde and 1 mmol of nucleophiles each in 10 mL ethanol. Conversion % is calculated using 1H NMR. Error-bars are calculated by carrying out three set of reactions.
