SnAr reaction¶
This dataset reports the e-factor for a nucleophilic aromatic substitution following the SnAr mechanism. Individual data points encode four process parameters for a flow reactor to run the reaction, along with the measured e-factor (defined as the ratio of the mass waste to the mass of product). 1
The dataset includes 67 samples with four parameters and one objective.
