Online NMR spectroscopy can meet these demands when flow probes are directly coupled to reactors, since this method features a high linearity between absolute signal area and sample concentration, which makes it an absolute analytical comparison method being independent on the matrix. Due to improved magnet design and field shimming strategies portable and robust instruments have been introduced to the market by several manufacturers during the last few years. First studies with this technology showed promising results to monitor chemical reaction in the laboratory. Within the project CONSENS, the continuous production of high-value products in small production scale is advanced by introducing benchtop NMR spectroscopy. CONSENS is a research and innovation project on integrated control and sensing for sustainable operation of flexible intensified processes. This poster will present the first steps of the process integration of a benchtop NMR instrument for a lithiation process and outlines further fields of activity and potential challenges. Hereby, the following issues are going to be addressed: explosion-proof housing for the spectrometer, automation of signal processing (data pretreatment, evaluation and communication to the control system), flow cells and measuring conditions. Furthermore, first online spectra of the lithiation reaction in batch mode were acquired in lab scale. The reaction was performed in a 25 mL glass reactor with thermal jackets for temperature control of the reaction mixture. The Li-HMDS was dosed stepwise by using a glass syringe. First spectra in the proton and fluorine domain were recorded online using a flowrate of 3.5 mL min–1 and a simple 5 mm polytetrafluoroethylene tube (PTFE) as a flow cell.
