Another forum said cyclic voltametry or however it's spelled, but it was just a guess

I'm not a chemist or whatever but my first thought was if you routinely needed a lot of something that was safer to make and distill in small batches at a distance from each other.

if it's too heat sensitive to distill then vacuum distillation is an option, but size of batch won't matter too hard

if it really can't be done, then there are ways to make it work without distillation
