CONTRACT RESEARCH.COM, a division of INDOFINE Chemical Company, Inc., is an innovative developer and provider of rare organic chemicals, biochemicals, enzyme substrates, and natural products. Our contract research facilities can synthesize compounds to your specifications and our process development experts can easily take the process from lab scale to commercial scale. We also provide custom synthesis and toll manufacturing to make commercial quantities of your compounds. 

Our expert team of chemists have over 100 years of cumulative experience in chemical synthesis. In addition, our Ph.D. chemists have expertise in flavonoids, coumarins, natural products, combinatorial chemistry building blocks, and medicinal chemistry. Our team is always available to speak directly with our clients to discuss project details. In process development projects we listen carefully to your needs and provide detailed proposals tailored to your requirements. We also have the flexibility to work independently or collaborate with clients on joint research projects.

Our contract research laboratory can synthesize compounds to your specifications and our process development experts can easily take the process from lab scale to commercial scale. This past year our development lab synthesized over 300 new compounds, including many combinatorial chemistry building blocks and compounds for medicinal chemistry projects.
