Catalysis is a core activity of NOVECAL. We have all required skills and know-how to address and optimize your chemical syntheses from research to production, through a large panel of catalysis operations. We develop a range of ligands and supported ligands (carbene, phosphine, and salen), involved in new families of heterogeneous, organometallic catalysts (palladium, rhodium, cobalt…) ensuring high TON / TOF in line with a low leaching in C-C Suzuki cross-coupling, reduction, and epoxide opening reactions.
Thanks to its pluridisciplinary skills, NOVECAL addresses challenges from chemistry to materials. We are specialized in molecular and organometallic chemistry, catalysis, surface chemistry, and nano/microparticles synthesis and stabilization. We propose products to solve industrial concerns as well as R&D and production services. Particularly, we propose various calixarenes derived from benzyloxycalixarenes, with a very large panel of functions. The selective functionalization of each rim allows for enlarging the scope of applications: ions recognition, catalysis, surface passivation, particles stabilization, …
