A high backpressure reactor has been developed to facilitate high temperature transformations using silicon carbide reaction tubes that couple very effectively with microwave irradiation to take the temperature well above the boiling points of the reactants and solvents. In-process reaction monitoring with GCMS, LCMS, and NMR spectroscopy has been developed to allow for the continuous production of analytical signals that are being harvested for reaction optimization. The current state of this self-optimizing and self-monitoring flow reactor system will be discussed in detail.<br/> <br/>
