Introduction
Scale-up synthesis is the crucial process of transitioning a chemical synthesis route from the laboratory to pilot or full-scale manufacturing. It ensures that the Active Pharmaceutical Ingredient (API) or intermediate can be produced in larger quantities without compromising quality, yield, or safety.
Why Is Scale-up Important?
A reaction that works well at a small scale often behaves differently when scaled up. Factors like temperature control, mixing efficiency, reaction kinetics, and impurity profiles can vary significantly. Proper scale-up ensures that the production process remains consistent, efficient, and compliant with regulatory standards.
