- How to characterize a T3P-mediated amidation reaction with extremely fast kinetics.
- How reaction modeling insights inform the design of a pilot-scale continuous tubular reactor.
- How to leverage METTLER TOLDEO advanced PAT by integrating in-situ FTIR, HPLC, and kinetic modeling.
This presentation highlights the reaction characterization stage of a comprehensive digital-twin development workflow for the continuous manufacturing of an API from Sanofi’s small-molecule portfolio. Specifically, a T3P-mediated amidation reaction is investigated by combining in-situ FTIR, offline HPLC, and kinetic modeling techniques. This integrated approach revealed a previously unrecognized multi-step acid activation mechanism and enabled the kinetic modeling of extremely fast elementary reactions. The proposed mechanism informed optimal strategies for the design of a pilot-scale continuous tubular reactor, including reagent addition sequence and optimal residence times. The calibrated kinetic model ultimately provides the foundation for a systems-level model to support the design and control of a continuous synthesis process for a Sanofi API.
