Preparation and Separation Laboratory
We develop chiral chromatography separation and preparation technologies for compound purification, and build structurally diverse chiral compound libraries through innovations in organic synthesis.

Process route research laboratory
We advance process development from lab research to pilot and intermediate-scale production, controlling trace impurities, improving yield, and optimizing reaction conditions for industrial-scale manufacturing.

Kilogram-scale laboratory
A versatile small-scale drug preparation platform for non-sterile intermediates, supporting product validation, pilot-scale production, and meeting customized requirements such as particle size, crystal form, residual solvents, and solubility.

Intermediate Synthesis Laboratory
Capable of conducting reactions under complex conditions with real-time structural elucidation, supported by ¹H NMR, ¹³C NMR, ¹⁹F NMR, and various 2D NMR techniques to ensure accurate structural confirmation of multi-chiral-center compounds.
1000+ Successful Delivery Cases Expertise in Synthesizing High-Difficulty Compounds
CATO serves over 500 pharmaceutical and biotech companies globally, delivering projects across the full development spectrum — from preclinical to commercialization. As of 2025, we have completed over 1,000 projects. Our core expertise includes advanced fluorine chemistry, asymmetric chiral synthesis, glycoside & biocatalysis technologies, and continuous-flow microreactor systems.
