History

SynphaBase AG was founded in December 2000 by Prof. Dr. Ernst Hungerbuehler, Dr. Arthur Bodenmueller and Beat Fuchs as a start-up company in close relationship to the University of Applied Sciences Basel (FHBB), now the University of Life Science (FHNW).

In 2002 SynphaBase moved its research laboratories to the BZM across the street from the FHNW.

End of July 2007 we moved into our new premises in Pratteln, where we can speed up our processes through short distances

The main focus of the company was at first the development and synthesis of chiral compounds serving either as building blocks in combinatorial chemistry or as starting materials in organic synthesis. With a special know-how in carbohydrates and peptides but also a broad expertise in handling the variety of chemical reactions, the first partners laid the foundation for the success of SynphaBase.

Due to our clients requests we expanded early into the whole organic-chemical area and have finished over 800 very different projects since.
