Solid phase synthesis reaction vessel and method of using the same

Abstract

A solid phase synthesis reaction vessel includes a vessel with a first inlet, a second inlet, and an outlet. A first stopcock is disposed within the first inlet and a second stopcock is disposed within the outlet. Solid phase material is prevented from escaping the reaction vessel via the outlet while allowing fluid to flow through the outlet by a frit. In one embodiment, the reaction vessel includes an outer hollow shell surrounding the vessel to allow cooling or heating fluid to flow therein for controlling the temperature in the interior reaction volume. The solid phase synthesis reaction vessel provides for the independent opening and closing of each of the inlets and outlet to provide for various ways of draining the vessel, varying the conditions within the vessel, and/or adding additional materials into the vessel.
