Abstract/ Summary

A range of synthetic transformations have been scaled up successfully using a sealed-vessel multimode microwave unit. These include metal-catalyzed couplings, synthesis of heterocycles, reactions under an atmosphere of reactive gas and two-step one-pot procedures. Also, observations have been made along the way that are of use to chemists addressing scale-up of microwave-promoted reactions.
