TLDR
In this article, a number of selected, noteworthy industrial examples are discussed to showcase the catalytic technologies that have been successfully practiced on large scales for active pharmaceutical ingredient (API) synthesis.
Abstract
Catalysis has become increasingly important for the pharmaceutical industry Catalysis is a critical technology that enables economical and environmentally-sound manufacturing processes The development of a viable catalytic process for industrial scales is a complex task that requires the collaboration of multiple disciplines In this article, a number of selected, noteworthy industrial examples are discussed to showcase the catalytic technologies that have been successfully practiced on large scales for active pharmaceutical ingredient (API) synthesis, involving transition metal catalysis, biocatalysis and organocatalysis In addition, several examples of potential and future catalytic transformations are included which can be utilized in pharmaceutical industry in large-scale operational settings

Palladium-Catalyzed Cross-Couplings by C-O Bond Activation.

TL;DR: Although the field has been historically dominated by nickel catalysis, it is now evident that the use of more versatile, more functional group tolerant and highly active palladium catalysts supported by appropriately designed ancillary ligands enables the cross-coupling with improved substrate scope and generality, and likely represents a practical solution to the broadly applicable cross- coupling of various C-O bonds across diverse chemical disciplines.

Supramolecularly fine-regulated enantioselective catalysts

TL;DR: Different supramolecular strategies to generate a set of enantiopure ligands (or enantioselective catalysts) that retain the majority of the backbone's structural features, yet at the same time incorporate subtle changes at its active site that depend on the structural characteristics of the regulation agent (RA) employed.

Active biopolymers in green non-conventional media: a sustainable tool for developing clean chemical processes

TL;DR: By understanding structure-function relationships of biopolymers in ILs, as well as for ILs themselves, several integral green chemical processes of (bio)catalytic transformation and pure product separation are pointed out, and developments based on DNA/ILs systems are considered.

Aryl-aryl bond formation by transition-metal-catalyzed direct arylation.

TL;DR: A number of improvements have developed the former process into an industrially very useful and attractive method for the construction of aryl -aryl bonds, but the need still exists for more efficient routes whereby the same outcome is accomplished, but with reduced waste and in fewer steps.
