Protocols

Acetylene chemistry has been and remains an important constituent element of molecular sciences. Its potential and widespread applications extend from organic synthesis through materials science to bioorganic chemistry. Some examples are enediynes (DNA-cleaving agents), ‘click chemistry’ tools and building blocks. Consequently, it triggers a demand for efficient syntheses of alkynes.

Information on the Amide bond and the Catalytic Amide Bond Formation Protocol. Amidation of amines and alcohols. The amide bond, an important linkage in organic chemistry, is a key functional group in peptides, polymers, and many natural products and pharmaceuticals.

Our team of scientists has experience in all areas of research including Life Science, Material Science, Chemical Synthesis, Chromatography, Analytical and many others.
