Chemistry
Use cases¶
Chemistry optimization is useful for drugs, materials synthesis.
Dual use¶
It is important to first consider dual-use and potential intentional or accidental harm that could come from the generation steps. Any GenAI enabled solution must necessarily have guardrails to prevent the synthesis of chemicals or byproducts that are harmful to people or to the environment.
Drugs¶

Components¶
Protocol Optimization¶
BAYESIAN OPTIMIZATION OF CATALYSTS WITH IN-CONTEXT LEARNING Uses LLMs to optimize synthesis procedures and prediction of properties. They allow for in-context learning.
Reaction Optimization¶
Grammar-Induced Geometry for Data-Efficient Molecular Property Prediction IMPORTANT uses heirarchichal metagraphs to stitch-together molecular nodes.
This results in leaves that are 'actual' molecules. Using graph neural-diffusion, it does amazingly well even with minimal data-sets (100 examples).
A deep learning framework for accurate reaction prediction and its application on high-throughput experimentation data
Developments The authors introduce a reaction representation, GraphRXNX that predicts reactions with graph-neuralnetworks. The model predicted graphical dataset reactions beyond baseline models.
Optimizing Chemical Reactions with Deep Reinforcement Learning (2017)
The authors reveal the use of models that iteratively improve outcomes for lab in loop optimization using deep learning models. Using RNN-enabled re-inforcement learning. The resulting Deep Reaction Optimizer (DRO) is supposed to "guide interactive decision-making procedure in optimizing reactions" by combining deep RL with chemistry domain knowledge.
