R&D Center

Datang R&D Lab is made up of 3 chemic experts widely recognized in the field, 5～6 technicians and some PhD and master candidates. The R&D Lab covers an area of 150m2, consisting of Synthesis Lab, Kilo Lab and Analysis Center. The Lab is located in the Xixi Campus of Zhejiang University, which is an impressively historic spot of the city, and equipped with the latest instruments. Furthermore, the outstanding research faculty, the rich data resources, and the advanced analytical equipments of Zhejiang University are all available for the Lab.

The R&D Lab is mainly concentrated on:

1. Development and synthesis of generic APIs & Key Intermediates, optimization of middle-scale test technology;
2. Design and development of the innovative synthetic route and technology of APIs;
3. Custom manufacture of Kilo-scale products;
4. Entrusted test and quality evaluation of pharmaceutical and chemical products.

The R&D Lab is specialized in the development of novel synthetic route and process of APIs, particularly in:

1. Stereo-selective Synthesis of trans alkenes;
2. Friedal-Crafts acylation;
3. Oxi-chlorization and Oxi-bromination;
4. Chlorization and bromination of hydroxyl group;
5. Reduction: good at the reduction of esters and nitro compounds and the electro-reduction of acids;
6. Column isolation.

Drug Polymorphism
In recent years, drug polymorphism is very important for the development of pharmaceutical industry. Datang R&D Center tries to get research further by the combination of X-ray Powder Diffractometer, X-ray Single Crystal Diffractometer and Thermal Analysis System.
