New building blocks for metathesis
 
The Squarix Newsletter provides you with information about our innovative building blocks, reactive intermediates and screening compounds from our Discovery Chemicals portfolio.
 
In this issue we present new N-protected Olefin building blocks, especially designed for Ring-Closing Metathesis (RCM) applications. These compounds are derived from natural and unnatural amino acides and not commercially available from other manufacturers. Please find below a sample list of these new building blocks.

See our website for the full line of building blocks or download the Discovery Chemicals catalogue.
