Software solution provides deeper understanding of new chemicals and their impact on the environment Toronto, CANADA (January 12, 2016)—ACD/Labs, a Toronto-based chemistry software company, today announced that for the past three years professor Raphael Terreux of the University of Lyon has relied on the ACD/Percepta Platform for a collaborative research project investigating new, environmentally friendly...

Seven’s commitment to quality products and services created a need for a quality assurance system that encompassed all aspects of the manufacturing process. This application note highlights ACD/Labs’ development of a fully automated quality assurance system which interacts with Seven’s existing ERP system to log and track samples, assess quality, and generate reports.

Toronto, CANADA (December 14, 2015)—ACD/Labs, an informatics company that develops and commercializes solutions in support of chemical and pharmaceutical R&D, today announced that Andrew Anderson has joined the company as vice president of business development. Anderson joins ACD/Labs from PepsiCo where he was responsible for technology scouting across a variety of research categories. In this...

Predict chemical shifts, coupling constants, and NMR spectra quickly and effortlessly. Directly compare predictions to experimental spectra for more efficient structure verification, and train the database to personalize the chemical space used for predictions.

In collaboration with Sequoia Sciences Inc., we developed a strategy for the dereplication of a complete or a partial structure using 1H NMR, 1H–13C HSQC and 1H–1H COSY spectral data, a molecular formula composition range and structural fragments against a massive database of about 22 million compounds is considered. The work was based on 18...

Most existing antibiotics were discovered through screens of environmental microbes, particularly the streptomycetes, for the capacity to prevent the growth of pathogenic bacteria. This “activity-guided screening” method has been largely abandoned because it repeatedly rediscovers those compounds that are highly expressed during laboratory culture. Most of these metabolites have already been biochemically characterized. However, the...

Influential cancer research organization selects ACD/Labs to unify analytical data processing and chemical characterization Toronto, CANADA (July 22, 2015)— ACD/Labs, a Toronto-based chemistry software company, announced today that the Institute of Cancer Research (ICR) has installed ACD/Spectrus Processor in its research programs to simplify processing and analysis of chromatography, mass spectrometry, and NMR data. At...

Strategic agreement streamlines integration within laboratory informatics systems Toronto, Canada & London, United Kingdom (July 8, 2015)—ACD/Labs, a Toronto-based chemistry software company, and IDBS, a leading global provider of advanced software for R&D organizations, today announced a new partnership to deliver an enhanced analytical sciences environment for IDBS Electronic Laboratory Notebook (ELN) users in the...

Spiroketals organize small molecule structures into well-defined, three-dimensional configurations that make them good ligands of proteins. We recently discovered a tandem cycloisomerization-dimerization reaction of alkynyl hemiketals that delivered polycyclic, enol-ether-containing spiroketals. Here we describe rearrangements of those compounds, triggered by epoxidation of their enol ethers that completely remodel their structures, essentially turning them “inside out”....
