ABOUT THE INSTITUTE OF ORGANIC CHEMISTRY

The Institute of Organic Chemistry of the National Academy of Sciences of the Ukraine - the leading scientific centre in
the Ukraine, was founded in 1939.
The scientists of the Institute carefully preserve and increase the scientific trends and traditions set up by outstanding scientists, Academicians of the Academy of Sciences of Ukr.SSR V.P.Yavorskii, V.G.Shaposhnikov, A.I.Kiprianov, E.O.Shilov, A.V.Kirsanov, L.N.Markovskii.
The staff of the Institute consists of 200 research workers and 85 representatives of office and management personnel. The staff of the Institute's Pilot Plant consists of 150 workers.

THE MAJOR SUBJECTS of the Institute are as follows:

carrying out basic research in the field of organic and heteroatom chemistry;
synthesis of practically useful chemicals;
development of production technologies for the fine organic synthesis and organization of the production at the Institute's Pilot Plant;
introduction of the technologies developed to industry.
chemistry of biologically active compounds
chemistry of cyanine dyes;
chemistry of heterocyclic compounds;
chemistry of organofluorine compounds;
chemistry of organophosphorus and organoelement compounds;
chemistry of organosulfur and relative compounds
supramolecular chemistry

OF PRACTICAL VALUE are the following directions of the research performed at the Institute:

development of physiologically active substances for medicine and veterinary;
development of pesticides and plant growth regulators; - develop ent of sensitizers for light-sensitive materials;
development of cyanine dyes for laser technics;
development of complexing agents for hydrometallurgy (extraction of heavy metals) and complexones for the extraction of radionucleides;
developmen chemical additives to polymers based on PVC.

The production potentialities of the Institute's Pilot Plant provide for manufacturing the products of fine organic synthesis from 100 g to 100 t depending on the end purpose.

INSTITUTE 'S BUSINESS INTERESTS:

The Institute is looking for the foreign partner to organize a joint venture on the production of substances and ready medicines and pharmaceuticals for veterinary; The basis for realizing of this proposal is the second production building of the Pilot Plant with total area of 7.5 ths. sq.m., including 3.6 ths.sq.m. of floor area. The bulding construction is completed by 80%.
Manufacture of the products of fine organic synthesis to the order of foreign companies at the operating Pilot Plant of the Institute.
Carrying out research to the order of foreign companies and organizations.
Synthesis of chemical reagents to the order of foreign partners.
Any other commercial proposals, which take into account peculiarities of the Institute's research and production activities.
