Intermediates play an important role in the pharmaceutical process

Pharmaceutical intermediates have multiple functions in the pharmaceutical process. Firstly, they can serve as a bridge between raw materials and final products. Through intermediates, the drug synthesis process can be divided into several steps, each requiring different compounds. 

Secondly, drug intermediates can also adjust reaction conditions and synthesis pathways to improve drug synthesis efficiency and yield. In addition, intermediates can also be used to regulate the purification, crystallization, and solid properties of drugs.
