PurchaseFrequently Asked Questions (FAQs)
What are the custom synthesis services offered by Noctiluca?
We offer custom synthesis, i.e. the tailored synthesis of organic compounds according to specific customer requirements. We carry out both the synthesis of new compounds and the optimization of existing structures with a focus on targeted technological applications.
What types of chemical compounds do we produce under custom synthesis?
We specialize in organic and organometallic compounds for use in optoelectronics, including iridium and platinum complexes, Grätzel-type dyes, hosts, ETL/HTL/EIL layers, and other components for OLED and OPV devices.
Do we carry out the synthesis of iridium and platinum complexes?
Yes, we have extensive experience in the synthesis of iridium and platinum complexes, including those for OLED applications, photosensitizers, and high-performance luminescent systems.
Does Noctiluca offer the development of new synthetic pathways?
Yes, we design and implement new synthetic routes for non-standard compounds, even when no literature data exist. Our R&D teams develop tailored reaction strategies, purification methods, and product characterization protocols to meet specific project goals.
What are our synthesis scale-up capabilities?
Thanks to our equipment, including lab and pilot-scale reactors up to 50 L, we can scale synthesis from milligram level up to hundreds of grams or more, ensuring high reproducibility and purity.
What analytical techniques do we use for quality control?
We use methods such as HPLC-MS, NMR, GC-MS, TGA, DSC, UV-Vis, FTIR, and SEM-EDX, which allow us to assess the purity, structure, and physicochemical properties of compounds with high precision.
For which industries do we perform custom synthesis projects?
Most frequently, we work with clients from the OLED, OPV, bioelectronics, sensor, and advanced materials sectors. However, our expertise enables us to deliver for a broad range of high-tech and R&D industries.
Do we offer optimization of existing molecules?
Yes, as part of custom synthesis, we can optimize existing molecules in terms of efficiency, stability, selectivity, or process parameters, using our expertise in molecular design.
What does the collaboration process look like for a custom synthesis project?
We begin by defining the project goals and scope. We then prepare a concept and synthetic strategy, followed by lab execution, analysis, and results reporting. We can also support application testing as part of the project.
How important is compound purity in our projects?
In all Noctiluca custom synthesis projects, high purity is a priority — often exceeding 99.5% or 99.9% — which is essential for applications such as OLED, OPV, or optical sensors.
Is project confidentiality ensured?
Yes, all projects are conducted in accordance with a signed NDA. We guarantee full confidentiality and information security, and clients may assume intellectual property ownership, as agreed.
Do we provide support for application testing of materials?
Yes, in addition to synthesis, we can support application testing of compounds in relevant structures (e.g. OLED, OPV). We also collaborate on demonstrator and prototype development.
Can we take over a project in the PoC or MVP stage?
Yes, we can join a project at various development stages, including Proof-of-Concept (PoC), prototype, or MVP. We offer support in R&D, pilot production, and technology validation.
What types of clients do we serve under custom synthesis?
We work with deeptech start-ups, industrial companies, and academic institutions. Each project is approached individually, regardless of scale or technology maturity.
Do we perform synthesis in compliance with regulated industry standards?
Yes, for selected projects, we adapt our processes to meet quality and regulatory requirements applicable in industries such as pharmaceutical chemistry, biotechnology, or agrochemicals. Upon request, we prepare dedicated documentation, including batch traceability, synthetic method validation, and compliance with GLP elements or client-specific quality norms.
What purity standards do we offer for demanding applications?
Depending on the material’s purpose and client specifications, we offer synthesis of high-purity compounds, typically reaching ≥99.5%, and often ≥99.9%. The products undergo comprehensive quality evaluation, and the documentation can include industry-standard or regulatory-compliant specifications.
Can our infrastructure support projects with industry-grade quality systems?
Yes, our laboratory facilities and processes support execution of projects in line with enhanced quality standards and control procedures, required in life sciences, specialty chemistry, and medical or environmental material development. We follow a flexible approach to the synthetic route, analytical protocols, and documentation requirements.
