Abstract
A modular reactor system and method for synthesizing nanoscale quantities of chemical compounds characterized by a continuous flow reactor under high pressure having uniform temperature throughout the reaction mixture. The apparatus includes a number of generic components such as pumps, flow channels, manifolds, flow restrictors, valves and at least one modular reactor, as small as one nanoliter in volume, where larger quantities can be produced by either using larger nanoscale sized units or adding parallel and serially disposed nanoscale reactor units.
