Custom Synthesis

Process-friendly, Cost-effective, and Timely Solutions

Leveraging years of expertise in working with potent and complex small molecules needed for bioconjugation projects, our team excels at troubleshooting challenging chemistry. We focus on delivering solutions that are not only of high quality but also economical and efficient. Our work with bioconjugation, chemistry and oligonucleotides, allows us to focus on the important aspects across diverse fields of research, such as conjugatable impurities for bioconjugates. Whether it is drug discovery, development, or route design, our services encompass the entire spectrum of project requirements.

At NJ Bio, our cutting-edge equipment enables us to employ advanced techniques such as ion exchange, extending beyond the conventional methods of synthetic laboratories. We can efficiently characterize and purify each compound, delivering results promptly to our clients. The collective expertise of our scientists in custom synthesis projects allows us to devise and effectively adopt innovative approaches while optimizing routes to achieve the desired outcome.

We use electrochemistry, photochemistry, flow chemistry, and ion exchange chromatography to tackle the synthesis of challenging compounds. Rather than forcing chemistry to conform to conventional equipment and protocols, we allow the unique chemistry and requirements of each project to dictate our equipment selection.  Projects are chosen based on their intriguing chemistry and potential to deliver significant value to our clients’ research.

NJ Bio excels in addressing complex synthesis issues with agility, facilitating quick product development, and prioritizing cost and time optimization. Our strength lies in our robust analytical and characterization tools which ensure thorough compound characterization and enhance the overall project efficiency. We specialize in synthesizing a diverse array of high-purity compounds at scales ranging from milligrams to kilograms. From chemical intermediates and process impurities to APIs and preclinical drug candidates, our comprehensive services for synthesis and analysis of complex molecules, ensure excellence at every stage of the process.

Custom Synthesis Services

Custom synthesis is a specialized chemical process tailored to create unique compounds, small molecules, or chemicals according to the specific requirements of clients. This involves producing substances that may not be readily available commercially or modifying existing compounds to achieve desired properties.

At NJ Bio, our custom synthesis services focus on developing hard-to-find chemicals and intermediates, as well as exploring alternate synthesis routes. Often, clients provide us with a process or literature reference of compounds produced at a laboratory scale. Scaling up these processes can pose safety concerns or be prohibitively expensive due to factors such as the use of expensive reagents. Our goal in finding alternative routes is to ensure safety, robustness, and repeatability in the synthesis process. We have expertise in synthesis of a variety of compounds with many reaction capabilities including but not limited to high pressure hydrogenation, electrochemistry, photochemistry, flow chemistry, microwave chemistry and solid- phase peptide and oligo synthesis.

From first-time synthesis of complex, commercially unavailable compounds to route optimization and supply of exclusive chemicals for production needs, we have a track record of multiple successful projects. Our facility is equipped with advanced instrumentation, enabling us to conduct various synthesis processes, multistep reactions, scale-up, and bulk production with precision. We specialize in a wide range of chemical transformations, including heterocyclic chemistry, metal-mediated synthesis, reductive amination, cyanation, reductions, oxidations, nitration, Friedel-Crafts reactions, C, O, N-alkylations, and chiral resolutions, among others.

We offer our custom synthesis services through a Blended FTE Model with our research lab in India to provide efficient and cost-effective solutions to our clients worldwide.
