Important Asymmetric and Catalytic Transformations for Drug Development
Chris H. Senanayake, Vice President, Chemical Development U.S., Department of Chemical Development, Boehringer-Ingelheim Pharmaceuticals, Inc.,

     During the past two decades, my process research group is involved in the development of a truly efficient, reliable, greener and economically viable catalytic and asymmetric transformations for many drugs and drug candidates.  Due to finding of effective asymmetric methodologies in a timely manner for important drug candidates, have provided many advantages to produce complex APIs in a rapidly for clinical development.  This lecture will be centered on several highlights of these methods for the synthesis of important drug candidates.
