Abstract
A method is disclosed for carrying out microwave-assisted chemical reactions. The method includes the steps of adding reagents to a pressure-resistant microwave-transparent vessel, securing the vessel against pressure release with a penetrable septum made of a material that can be penetrated by a needle while surrounding and sealing against the needle even after penetration to thereby maintaining the pressure integrity of the vessel, thereafter inserting a needle through the penetrable septum and into the pressure-secured vessel to provide fluid communication to the interior of the scaled pressure-resistant vessel through the needle, applying mechanical pressure against the septum while the needle is inserted therethrough, and irradiating the vessel and its contents with microwaves with the needle inserted therein.
