Pre-Conference Short Course: Demystifying Process Chemistry*

Neal G. Anderson, Ph.D., Anderson’s Process Solutions

7:30am Pre-Conference Short Course Registration and Morning Coffee

8:00 Start of Short Course
Currents of Green Chemistry Underlying Cost-Effective Process Development
Since green chemistry approaches can markedly decrease the cost of goods (COG), corporations are applying these approaches more often. 

Route Selection Goals
By designing a cost-effective route early in the development of a clinical candidate the cost of development may be markedly decreased in Phase 2 and perhaps earlier.

Optimizing Process Development by Minimizing Impurities
The quest to minimize and control impurities drives process development.

Developing Selective Crystallizations
Crystallizations offer opportunities to control processing to intermediates and APIs and physical characteristics of final form (salt, polymorph, solvate, particle size distribution), and are often under-utilized.

Process Refinements
Often there is little time to refine a process before scale-up, but such considerations can avoid scale-up difficulties with relatively little additional effort.
