Rotary evaporation is accomplished using a rotary evaporator, also known as a rotovap.
It is a commonly used technique for separating a compound of interest from a low-boiling solvent, such as an organic, inorganic, or polymeric substance.
Separation is accomplished by heating a mixture of solvent and compounds inside an evaporation flask, while partially submerging it in a warm water bath. The glassware is simultaneously rotated in the bath and subjected to a reduced pressure environment via a vacuum pump.
Rotary evaporators evaporate and condense the solvent, effectively separating it from the mixture. The desired compound is the only thing left behind, which will be used for a downstream application.
Rotovaps are standard fare in organic chemistry because of their sample concentration and solvent distillation capabilities, and are commonly utilized in chemical and pharmaceutical laboratories for extraction processes, sample preparation, R&D, and more.
