Abstract: A new proton sponge 1,8-bis(tetramethylguanidino)naphthalene (TMGN) was utilized for the alkylation of benzoic acid by iodomethane in a continuous flow microsystem. Using this set-up, kinetics of the reaction was determined in different mixing strategies and the Hammett reaction constant was measured. Good performance and efficiency of this procedure were confirmed through several preparative studies.
