Building blocks

Building blocks possess reactive functional groups and are essential components of organic synthesis - used for the modular synthesis of molecular architectures such as supramolecular complexes, metal-organic frameworks, and nanoparticles.

LGC Standards’ TRC range contains one of the largest and most diverse selections of organic building blocks: ranging from alkanes, alkenes and alkynes to allenes, arenes, arsenic compounds and chiral small molecules. We also have a vast portfolio of heterocyclic, fluorinated and halogenated building blocks.
