The Boehringer Ingelheim ChemKit
Presented with a selection of chemical building blocks, how would you validate chemical transformations for the rapid synthesis of complex chemical structures?
The Boehringer Ingelheim ChemKit collection aims to accelerate innovation in synthetic chemistry by providing open access to high-quality, structurally diverse building blocks. This initiative addresses the need for robust and versatile chemical transformations, which are essential for developing therapies for diseases with challenging biological targets.
In conjunction with the Frontiers in Medicinal Chemistry symposium that will be held at the University of Münster, Germany, from March 24 – 27, 2026, we make this unique collection again available for a short time1.
Researchers from academia, industry, and interdisciplinary fields are invited to explore and develop novel synthetic methodologies using these building blocks. Selected building blocks from Boehringer Ingelheim's extensive chemical library will be shared to expedite the discovery and development of new synthetic methodologies. We invite you to submit your proposals through May 10, 2026. The 20 best proposals will receive again open access to high-quality, structurally diverse building blocks to support the development of robust and versatile chemical transformations, which are essential for creating therapies targeting diseases with challenging biological mechanisms.
