This invention relates to a method and apparatus for performing microwave assisted chemical reactions, in particular for performing microwave assisted organic synthesis reactions under nearly ideal heating and cooling conditions. The method according to the present invention comprises, supplying substances for a chemical reaction into a reaction chamber, which is adapted to withstand high temperature and pressure, applying microwave heating to initiate the chemical reaction and reach a desired temperature, and cooling the reaction mixture to a desired lower temperature by using adiabatic cooling. The invention also relates to an apparatus for performing the method and use of the method and apparatus for performing organic synthesis reactions. |
