Abstract
Stoichiometric reduction of artemisinin to dihydroartemisinin (DHA) has been successfully transferred from batch to continuous flow conditions with a significant increase in productivity and an increase in selectivity. The DHA space-time-yield of up to 1.6 kg h -1 L -1 was attained which represents a 42 times increase in throughput compared to that of conventional batch process.
