Organic synthetic chemistry

Organic synthetic chemistry is used when producing many of the things that surrounds us, from paints and materials to fuels and medicine. At RISE we have the knowledge to solve complex issues within a broad range of areas, from building blocks from renewable sources to optimization of a the syntesis of a new pharmaceutical.

At RISE we work both with a broad and a small perspective, we can solve problems and find answers to most issues regarding organic synthetic chemistry, and we work at scales from micro gram to kilo grams. Our organic synthetic chemists have experience from both academia and industry and work with areas such as pharmaceuticals, biofuel, fine chemicals and materials. In Södertälje we also have, apart from expertise within pharmaceutical development, also built up a bioeconomy operation where we develop manufacture processes for biofuels and green chemicals from lignocellulose and other streams.

No matter if our customers need help connected to new legislation within the environmental area or to find a more efficient catalyst - we have the knowledge and expertise to help.

In general, we can divide our customers in to two categories, the ones who already have a chemical process that they, for different reasons, need help with, and the ones who have an idea or a labproduct that they want to scale up, optimise or develop. We can also help finding new products.

If you want to improve or optimise a current chemical process, we can support you with:

lower the energy consumption
increase the product yield
improve the working environment
decrease the amount of waste
help with substitution of chemicals
lower the amount of byproducts
make the process safer
adaptation to a new plant
conversion from batch to continous flow
PAT - process analytical technology
Route scouting via AI/ML

If you have a project within early development, we can support you with:

make literature studies
find robust and scalable synthetic routes
help with separation techniques that work for industrial scale
provide byproduct profiles
solve problems with homogenous and heterogenous catalysis
support with detailed safety data and kinetic studies
develop robust processes
make techno economical calculations
help with technology transfer
QBD, quality by design
process safety

We have the competence to solve complex issues within a range of areas with organic chemistry as the common nominator. Our projects span from new building blocks from renewable sources to optimise the synthesis for new pharmaceuticals.

Our collected knowledge and range make us a flexible partner that provides tailormade solutions from idea to product.
