“Synthetic Chemistry in the Pharmaceutical Industry: Case stories at Merck” Chemistry has a central role in the discovery, development and life cycle management of new pharmaceuticals. This presentation will cover a brief overview of some of the diverse roles that chemists can play in this sector and will go in detail into two case studies where synthetic chemistry was at center stage of innovation for the discovery and development of novel small molecule pharmaceuticals: i) Design of enzyme mimics for remote desymmetrizations and ii) Conjugate addition of alkyl bromides via photoredox catalysis.
