ChiraTecnics - Chiral Solutions for a Better Life


Who are we? ChiraTecnics was founded in 2009 as a spin-out from the University of Évora, with the aim to manufacture and commercialise ligands, building blocks and catalysts for chiral synthesis. Whilst the company still offers this portfolio to clients, it now mainly focuses on custom synthesis programmes to support medicinal chemistry and drug discovery projects for pharmaceutical and biotech companies. It is led by a strong international team and has access to all vital equipment to implement our projects.		News June 2019 Chiratecnics took part in a EIT Health SLIM work-shop on business skills at the University of DELFT, in Holland. We are also improving our business and management skills.

Hope to see you there, we will: http://isysycat2017.eventos.chemistry.pt/ April 2015 We have signed a contract with the University of Évora, to commercialise some novel patented state-of-the-art chiral organocatalysts that are used in a efficient safe process (WO2015052656 (A1)) to give chiral amines in good yields with very good enantiocontrol. These catalysts can also be immobilized.
