2022/07/06Synthesis and Application of Pyrazine Carboxylic Acid - Research and Development Department: Wei Yongming
As an important pharmaceutical intermediate, pyrazinecarboxylic acid is widely used in the hypoglycemic drug glipizide and a new generation of long-acting hypolipidemic drug aximus, and its derivative methyl pyrazinecarboxylate is also an important drug for the treatment of tuberculosis. There are 3 main synthesis methods: 1. Chemical synthesis method: there are mainly 3 ways: 1) Potassium permanganate is used in the preparation of oxidation, chlorination, hydrolysis and re-oxidation, which has large pollution, poor product traits, and the yield is less than 20%. 2) Prepared by chlorination, acylation, hydrolysis and oxidation, the yield is less than 50%.

2022/11/21Exclusive interview with Huili Biotechnology, a cutting-edge synthetic biology team, building a computing platform for implementing enzyme scenario design in China, enabling rational design and modification of enzymes. The industrialization of multiple pro
Enzymes are ubiquitous catalysts in living organisms, which can efficiently and selectively catalyze various biochemical reactions under mild conditions, and subtly regulate extremely complex metabolic processes in living organisms. In the process of natural enzyme application to industrial catalytic technology, a lot of excavation, screening, design improvement and other work are required. In recent years, the design ideas of synthetic biology engineering and the emergence of a large number of new
