The development of new synthetic methodologies and strategies has been the cornerstone upon which sustainable industrial processes are built. The pure research advances arising from academia fuel the world’s industrial innovation while also training the scientific leaders of tomorrow. This special session highlights the research of graduate students and postdoctoral scholars across the broader, global […]

Covering topics such as in silico tools to filter compound designs to reduce the number of compounds being synthesized; direct to biology type technologies; practical methods to carry out ‘greener chemistry’ for example novel (more efficient/sustainable) methodologies for classical reaction types; new purification methods; alternative reagents to avoid toxic/environmentally damaging reagents; reaction miniaturization efforts for […]

This symposium plans to unite various practitioners of Flow Chemistry across a broad range of modalities and track the evolution of Flow, highlighting the synergies not only with other technologies but also with the academic community. The latter is showcased by a number of grants awarded in this space, while overlaps exist with the Medicinal […]

Sustainability awareness has increased throughout the chemical and biochemical industries. This awareness has resulted in a desire to improve production processes using greener approaches. This session will share technological advances to reduce the environmental impact of biomolecule production and will include sustainability advances in solid-phase peptide synthesis, hybrid approaches to peptide production, recombinant peptide and […]

Advancements in base metal catalysis over the last decades have provided scientists with a wide range of synthetic tools to build organic small molecules. These new methodologies have broadened the substrate scope and improved our understanding of reaction mechanisms, resulting in more efficient approaches to building small molecules. In addition to new base-metal-catalyzed transformations, the […]

The ACS Green Chemistry Institute Pharmaceutical Roundtable stands at the forefront of promoting and implementing green chemistry and engineering within the pharmaceutical and allied industries (e.g., agricultural, animal health, etc.) to foster the UN sustainable goal of “Good Health and Well-Being.” For over two decades, the roundtable has advanced sustainable chemical innovations, catalyzed collaborations between […]

This symposium highlights outstanding research, applications, and innovations from industry and academia that demonstrate compelling environmental, safety, and efficiency improvements over current technologies. Speakers are invited by the ACS Green Chemistry Institute Pharmaceutical Roundtable (GCIPR), the leading global organization dedicated to advancing green chemistry and engineering in pharma and allied industries. In this symposium, you […]

To meet the global health challenges of the future and advance the goal of good health and well-being for all, the pharmaceutical industry must find ways to minimize the human health and environmental impacts of producing medicines. Conventional methods to produce synthetic medicines are solvent-intensive and often rely on hazardous substances leading to climate and […]

Sustainability requires collective efforts from all of us to innovate in the face of declining natural resources. To this end, our symposium aims to showcase cutting-edge green chemistry innovations in the production of structure-complex building blocks or intermediates to minimize environmental footprint (scope 3 emissions). The session will highlight contributions from UNDP/EPA, pharma, biotech, CROs, […]
