Today, new drugs frequently contain several heterocycles, including classical elements of the periodic table such as nitrogen, oxygen, or fluorine.
Key Points:
- Today, new drugs frequently contain several heterocycles, including classical elements of the periodic table such as nitrogen, oxygen, or fluorine.
- Those original structures are sought after to selectively address certain biological receptors, or to influence the drugs bioavailability.
- Reactions themselves are often characterized by their exothermicity, and sometimes the energetic or unstable nature of the intermediates.
- Frdric Schab, Seqens Innovation Director, explains: The key to mastering flow chemistry processes is to combine expertise in chemistry and process engineering.
