Listen here to a podcast with Fred Fleitz, senior manager, process R&D with Cambridge Major Laboratories, and Roger McDonald, director of business development with Cambridge Major Laboratories, discuss recent project work in optimizing several API syntheses. Fleitz discusses the approach taken in a condensation reaction between a naphthoquinone derivative and a substituted methyl vinyl ketone. McDonald discusses the optimization of a synthetic route for a complex natural product analogue. In another project, he discusses an approach taken to maintain the desired enantioselectivity of a molecule containing a chiral cyclopropane moiety during scale-up.
