RESUMO
Machine-learned ranking models have been developed for the prediction of substrate-specific cross-coupling reaction conditions. Data sets of published reactions were curated for Suzuki, Negishi, and C-N couplings, as well as Pauson-Khand reactions. String, descriptor, and graph encodings were tested as input representations, and models were trained to predict the set of conditions used in a reaction as a binary vector. Unique reagent dictionaries categorized by expert-crafted reaction roles were constructed for each data set, leading to context-aware predictions. We find that relational graph convolutional networks and gradient-boosting machines are very effective for this learning task, and we disclose a novel reaction-level graph attention operation in the top-performing model.
