Custom Synthesis

Molecules that fulfil a specific need — not only those that are readily accessible

Deep knowledge of synthetic organic chemistry, proficiency in modern methodologies and the ability to apply our skills and experience allow our team to quickly assess existing synthetic routes, identify challenges and potential points to improve, and propose novel alternatives for evaluation. By harnessing the expertise of our team of skilled chemists and scientists, we tackle challenges at every stage of the discovery process — pushing the boundaries of what is possible and striving to create molecules that fulfil specific needs or goals, rather than just those that are readily accessible.

Our Capabilities

  • New site in Germany, in Höchst Industrial Park, Frankfurt am Main, with capacity for up to 35 bench chemists
  • Modern, well-equipped lab space with all the infrastructure required for organic synthesis
  • Direct access to a unique collection of Enamine building blocks and intermediates
  • Analytical equipment: LCMS and NMR
  • Normal- and reverse-phase column chromatography for milligram- to gram-scale purification
  • Compound storage and management, with well-validated logistics
  • Research-grade synthesis throughout — the Frankfurt site is not a GMP facility

Flexible Models of Collaboration

We offer flexible models of collaboration tailored to the specific needs, preferences and budget conditions of each client.

FFS — Fee-for-Service

Suits ordering compounds with defined structures. Based on the literature and on our own experience we provide a quote with timelines and costs; once the synthesis is performed, the customer is charged according to that quote.

FTE — Full-Time Equivalent

Makes sense for dynamic, flexible projects that require research and validation of synthetic routes. Dedicated chemists are fully engaged in the synthetic work, following the priorities you set and reporting regularly on progress. The customer is charged monthly at the FTE rate.

How the Engagement Works

  • All intellectual property arising from the work belongs to you
  • Written progress reports every two weeks
  • Work starts under a signed Master Service Agreement and NDA
