HTS in catalysis typically involves several steps:
Library Preparation: A diverse library of potential catalysts is prepared. This can include variations in ligand structures, metal centers, and support materials. Reaction Screening: Automated systems are used to conduct catalytic reactions under various conditions in parallel. This often involves miniaturized reactors and robotic handling systems. Data Collection: High-throughput analytical techniques, such as mass spectrometry, gas chromatography, or spectroscopy, are used to quickly analyze the products of each reaction. Data Analysis: Advanced software and data analytics methods are used to identify patterns and correlations in the data, helping to pinpoint the most promising catalysts.
