This federal Project Grant award of $280,160, provided by the National Institute of General Medical Sciences (NIGMS) under the Biomedical Research and Research Training Program (CFDA 93.859), supports the development of inexpensive and reusable sorbents to cost-effectively remove palladium from the products of palladium-catalyzed cross-coupling reactions. These types of reactions are widely used in pharmaceutical discovery, but their use in pharmaceutical process chemistry is limited due to the difficulty of removing the palladium catalysts. The awardee, Palladias LLC, will use high-throughput screening to identify selective sorbents that can extract palladium from complex matrices. This work aims to address a key challenge in the pharmaceutical industry and facilitate the broader adoption of palladium-catalyzed reactions in the production of medicines. The award period is from May 1, 2025 to April 30, 2026.
