Key advantages and significance of the solution
Integrating ¹⁹F NMR into pharmaceutical operations offers a distinct balance between sensitivity, selectivity, and cost effectiveness. The process enables the accurate tracking of substrates, intermediates, and products, even in complex matrices, without the need for external standards.
Automated data analysis with InsightMR software produces clear kinetic profiles and mechanistic insights, allowing for process intensification, scalability, and compliance with Process Analytical Technology (PAT) and Quality by Design (QbD) standards.
Three key points
- Real-Time Monitoring with 19F NMR: High sensitivity allows for accurate tracking of fluorinated species, offering insights into reaction progress and kinetics to optimize synthesis.
- Automated, User-Friendly Workflows: Integrated hardware and software simplify reaction monitoring for batch and flow chemistry, providing automated and user-friendly workflows.
- Scalable Integration for PAT and QbD: Adaptable Benchtop NMR technologies enable scalable integration for PAT and QbD, supporting growing research and manufacturing needs and ensuring regulatory compliance.
