 JFC - Jülich Fine Chemicals GmbH was founded in 1999 as a new start-up company in Jülich near the well-known Research Centre. 
We are specialized on biotransformation in chiral synthesis. We are at your service with:

– Specialty Enzymes for Organic Chemistry
– Chiral Intermediates
– Enzyme Membrane Reactors
– R&D Services in Biocatalysis

Contact us

JFC offers a broad range of specialty enzymes for organic synthesis focusing on the field of enantioselective preparation of chiral hydroxy compounds with enzymatic tools, particularly oxidoreductases.

Additionally we list many other new and in some cases recombinant enzymes in our catalogue belonging to the group of hydrolases and lyases such as esterases, lipases, nitrilases and oxynitrilases. All these catalysts are useful tools in the preparation of optically pure key intermediates for pharmaceutical products.

One of our key technologies for chiral synthesis with enzymes is the application of an Enzyme Membrane Reactor (EMR). You will also find this innovative and efficient tool listed in our catalogue. We offer small volume reactors for R&D as well as for practical studies at schools and universities.

Our core competence is the application of our enzymes for new biotransformations and the development of technical processes for our customers.
We are confident to find a solution to your problem!
