Chemical Synthesis
At Ascentia, we specialize in multi-step syntheses of structurally complex molecules, with extensive experience across a range of synthetic challenges and compound classes.
- Custom synthesis of structurally complex organic compounds
- Multi-step synthetic routes
- Organometallic reactions
- Asymmetric synthesis
- Unusual amino acids for solid-phase peptide synthesis (SPPS), including N-alkylated amino acids, β-amino acids, and α,α-disubstituted analogues, amino acids with nonstandard protecting groups
- Peptidomimetics
- Aromatic and non-aromatic heterocycles
- Modified & cyclic peptide synthesis
- Library synthesis (virtual screening, SAR)
- Route scouting
- Synthetic Process Optimization & Route Development
- Feasibility studies for synthesis scale-up form milligram quantities for early-stage research up to 1-kilogram scale for preclinical studies or compound supply
- Analytical support, including the identification and synthesis of impurities, degradants, and metabolite reference standards
- Synthesis of compounds labelled with stable isotopes
