Microwave-enhanced synthesis represents a fundamental step forward in the capabilities of synthetic chemistry. It allows
organic chemists to work faster, generating higher yields with increased product purity, and to scale experiments up reliably from milligrams to much larger quantities without the need to alter reaction parameters.
It offers much more precise control over conditions of temperature and pressure than any previous technology. Ultimately, by eliminating much of the time and effort from the process of performing chemical reactions,
it allows chemists to focus on what is most important—the development of new compounds, or refined methods for generating known products.
The Milestone advantage in organic synthesis resides in the ability
to provide thorough and effortless scalability and uniquely offer tools to work with the entire range of volumes in the synthetic process, from discovery, through parallel synthesis, to large-scale production
