A multioperation, continuous-flow platform for the synthesis of tramadol, ranging from gram to decagram quantities, is described. The platform is segmented into two halves allowing for a single operator to modulate between preparation of the intermediate by Mannich addition or complete the fully concatenated synthesis. All purification operations are incorporated in-line for the Mannich reaction. 'Flash' reactivity between meta-methoxyphenyl magnesium bromide and the Mannich product was controlled with a static helical mixer and tested with a combination of flow and batch-based and factorial evaluations. These efforts culminated in a rapid production rate of tramadol (13.7 g°h -1) sustained over 56 reactor volumes. A comparison of process metrics including E-Factor, production rate, and space-time yield are used to contextualize the developed platform with respect to established engineering and synthetic methods for making tramadol.
Opioid Detection

Paragraph 0009; 0078, (2017/07/14)
An immunoassay method is described which detects O-desmethyltramadol only. This enables an assay of high sensitivity and specificity avoiding false positive results. The unique antibodies incorporated in the immunoassay method can be combined with antibodies which detect mitragynine to provide an assay which increases the possibility of detecting the commonly found drug combination of O-desmethyltramadol and mitragynine.

Page/Page column 26, (2012/05/04)
A method for producing a norbornene derivative, comprising: a first step of forming a Mannich base by reacting a carbonyl compound and an amine compound with each other in an acidic solvent, to thereby obtain a reaction liquid comprising the Mannich base in the acidic solvent, the acidic solvent comprising a formaldehyde derivative and 0.01 mol/L or more of an acid represented by the formula: HX (In the formula, X represents F or the like), the carbonyl compound being represented by any of the following general formulae (1) to (3): [in formulae (1) to (3), R1, R2, R3, R4, R5, and R6 each independently represent a hydrogen atom or the like, and n represents an integer of any of 0 to 4], the amine compound being represented by the following general formula (4): [in the formula (4), R7S each independently represent a linear chain saturated hydrocarbon group having 1 to 20 carbon atoms or the like, and X- represents F- or the like], the Mannich base being represented by any of the following general formulae (5) to (7): [R1, R2, R3, R4, R5, R6, and n in the formulae (5) to (7) have the same meanings as those of R1, R2, R3, R4, R5, R6, and n in the formulae (1) to (3), and R7 and X- in the formulae (5) to (7) have the same meanings as those of R7 and X- in the formula (4)] and a second step of reacting the Mannich base and a diene compound with each other by adding an organic solvent, a base in an amount of 1.0 to 20.0 equivalents to the acid, and the diene compound to the reaction liquid, and then heating the reaction liquid, to thereby form a norbornene derivative, the diene compound being represented by the following general formula (8): [in the formula (8), R8 represents a hydrogen atom or the like], the norbornene derivative being represented by any of the following general formulae (9) to (11): [R1, R2, R3, R4, R5, R6, and n in the formulae (9) to (11) have the same meanings as those of R1, R2, R3, R4, R5, R6, and n in the formulae (1) to (3), and R8 in the formulae (9) to (11) has the same meaning as that of R8 in the formula (8)].
