Microwave-assisted organic synthesis

Microwave-assisted organic synthesis (MAOS) uses microwave radiation to speed up chemical reactions in the lab. Unlike conventional heating that relies on external heat transfer, microwaves directly interact with molecules, rapidly increasing their energy and temperature. This leads to faster reaction times, often with higher yields and improved selectivity. MAOS is especially useful for complex or slow reactions, making laboratory processes more efficient, environmentally friendly, and cost-effective without compromising safety or precision.
