Module and apparatus for synthesis of organic molecules or the like

Module for the synthesis of molecules, particularly organic, on or in solid phase, characterized in that it is principally constituted by several, preferably at least two and at most ten, separate synthesis reactors (2), arranged in a circular arrangement with equi-angular distribution and each formed by a tubular body (3) forming a reaction chamber (3′) delimited in its lower portion by a removable porous wall (4), adapted to retain the material forming a synthesis support, by a head (5) for injection and expansion forming an upper closure plug for the tubular body (3), and by a base (6) for closing and emptying, mounted removably in a lower prolongation (3″) of the tubular body (3) and ensuring the peripheral sealed holding of the retention wall (4), each reactor (2) being provided with a heat exchanger (7) in intimate peripheral contact with the tubular body (3) at least at the level of the portion (3′″) of the chamber (3′) adapted to contain the medium and the reaction compounds, and by a condenser (8) in intimate peripheral contact with the body (3) at the level of a portion (3″″) of the chamber (3′) extending above the latter (3′″) containing the medium and the reaction compounds and below the injection head (5), and said assembly of reactors (2) being mounted in an insulating structure (9) surrounding said reactors (2) at least at the level of said exchangers (7) and said condensers (8), the action of these latter being similar for all the reactors (2) of the module (1) and the insulation being homogeneous for all the reactors (2), such that said reactors (2) will be continuously subject to identical thermal conditions.
