Accepted Abstracts: Med chem

Abstract :

Innovation is one of the most important elements in research endeavor. Given the complexity involved in challenging scaffold of molecules of pharmaceutical significance, one has to engage in chemistry innovation pertinent to the synthesis of medicines. Process research pertaining to drug synthesis at generic pharmaceutical industry imposes a great challenge due to cut throat competition. Few case studies involving innovation based on fundamental understanding of chemistry will be presented.
