CPC Class Not Allocatable
C07 ORGANIC CHEMISTRY
Description
C07 encompasses the preparation, purification, and chemical characterization of organic compounds and their intermediates, excluding pharmaceuticals (C07K for peptides/proteins; A61K for drug formulations). This class covers synthetic methods, reactions, and processes for aliphatic, cyclic, aromatic, and heterocyclic compounds, as well as natural product modifications and derivatives. It includes industrial-scale organic syntheses, catalytic processes, and functional group transformations relevant to fine chemicals, agrochemicals, dyes, and polymers.
