Abstract
Catalytic carbene-transfer reactions constitute a class of highly useful transformations in organic synthesis. Although catalysts based on a range of transition-metals have been reported, the readily accessible nickel(II)-based complexes have been rarely used. Herein, an air-stable nickel(II)-carborane complex is reported as a well-defined, versatile and recyclable catalyst for selective carbene transfer reactions with low catalyst loading under mild conditions. This catalyst is effective for several types of reactions including diastereoselective cyclopropanation, epoxidation, selective X-H insertions (X = C, N, O, S, Si), particularly for the unprotected substrates. This represents a rare example of carborane ligands in base metal catalysis.

Abstract
The increased demand for more efficient, safe, and green production in fine chemical and pharmaceutical industry calls for the development of continuous-flow manufacturing, and for chiral chemicals in particular, enantioselective catalytic processes. In recent years, this emerging direction has received considerable attention and has seen rapid progress. In most cases, catalytic enantioselective flow processes using homogeneous, heterogeneous, or enzymatic catalysts have shown significant advantages over the conventional batch mode, such as shortened reaction times, lower catalysts loadings, and higher selectivities in addition to the normal merits of non-enantioselective flow operations. In this Minireview, the advancements, key strategies, methods, and technologies developed the last six years as well as remaining challenges are summarized.

Abstract
Opportunities for accessible microfluidic device integration have sharply grown with the rise of readily available lab-in-a-tube strategies. Herein, we present a facile, non-invasive, plug-and-play phase velocity and length measuring strategy for rapid deployment onto tube-based microfluidic systems, enabling quick and accurate residence (reaction) time measurement and tuning. Our approach utilizes inexpensive off-the-shelf optical phase sensors and requires no prior knowledge of the fluid composition or physical properties. Compared to camera-based measurements in fluoropolymer tubing, the optical phase sensor-based technique shows mean absolute percentage errors of 1.3% for velocity and 3.3% for length. Utilizing the developed multiphase flow monitoring technique, we screen the accessible parameter space of gas-liquid segmented flows. To further demonstrate the functionality of this process monitoring strategy, we implement two feedback controllers to establish simultaneous setpoint control for phase velocity and length. Next, to showcase the effectiveness and versatility of the developed multiphase flow process controller, we apply it to systematic studies of the effect of liquid slug velocity (controlling precursor mixing timescale) on the colloidal synthesis of cesium lead tribromide nanocrystals. By varying the liquid slug velocity and maintaining constant precursor composition, liquid slug length, and residence time, we observe a bandgap tunability from 2.43 eV (510 nm) to 2.52 eV (494 nm).

Abstract
Abstract
Process intensification (PI) is a rapidly growing field of research and industrial development that has already created many innovations in chemical process industry. PI is directed toward substantially smaller, cleaner, more energy-efficient technology. Furthermore, PI aims at safer and sustainable technological developments. Its tools are reduction of the number of devices (integration of several functionalities in one apparatus), improving heat and mass transfer by advanced mixing technologies and shorter diffusion pathways, miniaturization, novel energy techniques, new separation approaches, integrated optimization and control strategies. This review discusses many of the recent developments in PI. Starting from fundamental definitions, microfluidic technology, mixing, modern distillation techniques, membrane separation, continuous chromatography, and application of gravitational, electric, and magnetic fields will be described.

Abstract
A rapid, chemoselective and metal-free C-B bond-forming reaction of aryl iodides and bromides in aqueous solution at low temperatures was discovered. This reaction is amenable to batch and continuous-flow conditions and shows exceptional functional group tolerance and broad substrate scope regarding both the aryl halide and the borylating reagent. Initial mechanistic experiments indicated a photolytically generated aryl radical as the key intermediate.

Abstract
The Pd-catalyzed aminocarbonylation of aromatic bromides was investigated in both a silicon microreactor and a packed-bed tubular reactor. An automated transient temperature ramp method with in-line IR analysis led to significantly more rapid determination of reaction kinetics than traditional steady-state screening for offline GC analysis.

A water-based thermoregulated system for Pd-catalyzed Sonogashira reactions is presented, which allows for not only a highly efficient homogeneous catalytic reaction, but also an easy separation/recovery of the catalyst. The novel catalytic system exhibits high efficiency and excellent reusability. In addition, the Sonogashira reactions are performed with Pd(OAc)2 without a copper co-catalyst.

Abstract
Chemical synthesis in microsystems has evolved from simple proof-of-principle examples to become a general technique in academia and industry. Numerous such "flow chemistry" applications are now found in pharmaceutical and fine chemical synthesis. Much of the development has been based on systems employing macroscopic flow components and tubes, rather than the integrated chip technology envisioned by the lab-on-a-chip community. We review the major developments in systems for flow chemistry and discuss limitations underlying the development of chip-scale integrated systems.
