San Francisco, May 29, 2025 – Yoneda Labs, a leader in computational tools for reaction optimization, has successfully collaborated with Symeres, a leading transatlantic, small molecule contract research and manufacturing organization. The aim was to optimize transition metal catalyzed cross-coupling reactions to improve reaction yield and efficiency utilizing Yoneda Labs’ cutting-edge software.

The new production lines D1 and D2 were launched for the first time in May 2024 at the Prague site. The first batch of 11 kg of API was produced in the following weeks, and the tremendous efforts of the many people involved in planning the entire production line have finally paid off. Since the production line was launched, all equipment has been continuously utilized.

Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR) Spectroscopy is a powerful analytical tool well known to all organic chemists and to anyone that works in pharmaceuticals. By placing a sample dissolved in deuterated solvent into a strong magnetic field (roughly 4000x the strength of Earth’s magnetic field) and pulsing it with radio frequencies, the chemist is given an enormous amount of information from the identity and placement of functional groups to relative stereochemistry of diastereomers. Recently, Exemplify added NMR to our expanding list of capabilities.

Symeres announces the evolution of its leadership team ahead of the company’s next phase of development. After nearly three decades at the helm, Symeres’ co-founders, Dr. Eelco Ebbers (CEO) and Dr. Frank Leemhuis (Head of Corporate Development), have decided to step back from their current executive roles.

After months of dedication and collaboration, the official opening of the Marie Curie building at the Pivot Park in Oss was opened on Sep 19th, 2024. The Marie Curie building is a multitenant laboratory building which houses Oncolines B.V., the in vitro biology services laboratory of Symeres. Read more about this exciting development!

Exemplify has recently acquired a Mettler-Toledo EasyMax 402 automated reactor system to add to its process development capabilities. This instrument can accommodate reactor sizes of 100 and 400 mL and allows for the precise automated control of reaction parameters such as temperature, stirring speed, reagent addition rate, and pH, providing real-time data collection that can greatly enhance our understanding of a reaction’s unique profile.

The first of the two new 100 L glass-lined stainless steel reactor lines has successfully finished the testing and now it is operational at our Groningen site. By doubling our batch size capacity, we have increased the efficiency for large-scale non-GMP production projects. This will result in faster delivery times for our clients and less batch routine work for our chemists.

On March 26th we had the Grand Opening of our brand new, state-of-the-art Organix synthetic and analytical chemistry laboratories in Woburn, just outside Boston MA.

This is a recap of the article “Development of potent Mcl-1 inhibitors: structural investigations on macrocycles originating from a DNA-encoded chemical library screen” published in the Journal of Medicinal Chemistry. Myeloid cell leukemia 1 (Mcl-1) is a protein that plays a crucial role in the regulation of cell survival and cell death. It is part of a family of proteins called the Bcl-2 family, which are known for their involvement in controlling the life span of cells.

In a significant stride towards advancing cancer research and drug development, Oncolines, has officially received the keys to its new laboratories and offices situated within the prestigious Curie Building on the Pivot Park in Oss, the Netherlands.
