Sustainable flow synthesis of a versatile cyclopentenone building block

A flow based multistep processing sequence to reliably provide the delivery of a highly functional cyclopentenone is described. The exemplification of employing solid dosing of reagents and in-line aqueous extraction has enabled an integrated workflow in a highly automated reactor setup.
