Technological advances have an important role in the design of greener synthetic processes. In this Personal Account, we describe a wide range of thermal, photochemical, catalytic, and biphasic chemical transformations examined by our group. Each of these demonstrate how the merits of a continuous flow synthesis platform can align with some of the goals put forth by the Twelve Principles of Green Chemistry. In particular, we illustrate the potential for improved reaction efficiency in terms of atom economy, product yield and reaction rates, the ability to design synthetic process with chemical and solvent waste reduction in mind as well as highlight the benefits of the real-time monitoring capabilities in flow for highly controlled synthetic output.

Chloroanilines represent a class of persistent and highly toxic environmental pollutants, posing significant challenges for green remediation strategies. While P450BM3 monooxygenases are renowned for their ability to catalyze the monooxidation of inert C-H bonds, costly NAD(P)H and complex electron transport systems required for P450BM3 catalysis limit their practical applications. This study pioneers the development of innovative artificial biocatalysts by strategically engineering the active site of P450BM3.
