Fine Chemicals - a world without end.
Fine Chemicals, the newest division in Takasago, has more than 20-year history in asymmetric synthesis, which began with the development of our first process based on our proprietary ligand, BINAP. Our continuous development, to expand and refine the technology afforded a variety of new ligands, some of which have been successfully used for industrial applications for materials for Life Sciences, such as pharmaceutical intermediates. While BINAP is still one of the landmark ligands in the world, we are now emphasizing SEGPHOS®, which is the next generation ligand.

For a long time, Takasago's catalysts and ligands were for in-house use only. But now they are commercially available directly from Takasago (for large quantities) and from Strem Chemicals, Inc. or Sigma-Aldrich Co. (for reagent quantities). If you think of the former case, process developments and/or contract manufacturing at Takasago are also your option.

Our goal is to provide leading-edge catalysts and technology, which will assist in the adoption of green manufacturing principals. Takasago's philosophy is "Technology is Our Product." We welcome your inquiries."
