Pharmaceuticals Webinar | 20th Anniversary of Pharmaceuticals—Green Techniques for Organic and Organometallic/Coordination Synthesis and Medicinal Chemistry, 5 September 2024

Are you interested in developing pharmaceuticals in a sustainable and environmentally friendly way? If so, join us for a workshop on Green Techniques for Organic and Organometallic/Coordination Synthesis and Medicinal Chemistry! This workshop is perfect for researchers and students working in organic synthesis, medicinal chemistry, or organometallic/coordination chemistry, as well as anyone curious about greener approaches in these fields.

The workshop will be devoted to the latest advancements in green chemistry principles applied to these areas of drug discovery. We will explore topics like utilizing alternative solvents such as deep eutectic solvents (DESs), and solvent-free methods like mechanochemistry, minimizing waste generation, and employing biocatalysis for efficient and sustainable syntheses.

This event provides an excellent opportunity to explore the application of green chemistry principles in pharmaceutical development.

Date: 5 September 2024 at 3:00 p.m. CEST | 9:00 a.m. EDT | 9:00 p.m. CST Asia
Webinar ID: 893 7557 6954
