ACS GCI Pharmaceutical Roundtable Acid and Base Selection Guides
Building on work from GlaxoSmithKline [1], the ACS GCI Pharmaceutical Roundtable have established an interactive tool for the informed selection of acids and bases based on factors such as pKa (in water or acetonitrile), functional group and boiling point. The tool contains over 200 acids and bases.
The tool also allows filtering based on clean chemistry aspects and EHS concerns arising from, for example, the generation of gaseous, flammable or toxic by-products or the incineration of halogenated acids.
