Our Technological Expertise spans:
|
- Fluorinations – with metal fluorides (Halex), anhydrous HF, HF amine complexes, SF4 ( under high pressure) and F2 gas
- High pressure synthesis – using catalytic hydrogenation and hydro-dechlorinations, ammonolysis, hydroxylation, halogen exchange using HF, Kolbe reaction
- Vapour phase synthesis – using alkylation, fluorination, ammoxidation, chlorination, hydrolysis, oxidation.
- Diazotizations – fluorination (Schiemann reaction and Balz-Schiemann reaction), bromination and chlorinations (Sandmeyer Reactions), hydrolysis to phenols, deamination and Meerwein arylation
- Other capabilities - nitration, bromination, chlorination, acylation, chlorosulfonation, condensation, methoxylation, organometallic chemistry, Grignard reaction and n-BuLi applications. Reductive deamination with sodium borohydride, hydrogen peroxide oxidation, Friedel – Crafts acylation, Fries Rearrangement, Kolbe’s synthesis and hydrolysis.

Process scale up and technology transfer
We are one of the few companies in fluorination chemistry with the experience, capability and expertise in scale up from research
to pilot and manufacturing.
Our dedicated teams manage projects from development trials to final delivery of the desired compound.
The pilot facility at our Surat can simulate full scale production conditions and provide seamless transition from laboratory
to production plants.
