 | In the glyoxal and glyoxylic acid business we have developed several high value, advanced intermediates for the life science industry. Clariant Specialty Intermediates is a leading partner in the development of highly sophisticated intermediates for the pharmaceutical industry. The use of glyoxal and glyoxylic acid as versatile tools in implementing two carbon atoms in organic molecules stands for our C2-chemistry.
Our portfolio comprises a diverse range of commercially available chemicals as well as proprietary compounds developed under exclusive contract, including heterocycles like arylfuranes and indoles, as well as mandelic acids, aryl acetic acids and their derivatives like for example arylethylamines and nitriles. Our expertise also includes the use of the bifunctionality of glyoxylic acid to make chiral auxiliaries, and we also offer the recycling of chiral templates. |
