Journal ArticleDOI

Using Machine Learning To Predict Suitable Conditions for Organic Reactions.

TL;DR: A neural-network model is developed to predict the chemical context (catalyst, solvent, and reagent), as well as the temperature most suitable for any particular organic reaction, which is illustrated through several examples spanning a range of common reaction classes.
Journal ArticleDOI

Enantioselective small molecule synthesis by carbon dioxide fixation using a dual Brønsted acid/base organocatalyst.

TL;DR: A metal-free small molecule catalyst is described that achieves the three component reaction between a homoallylic alcohol, carbon dioxide, and an electrophilic source of iodine and Cyclic carbonates are formed enantioselectively.
Journal ArticleDOI

Regio-selectivity prediction with a machine-learned reaction representation and on-the-fly quantum mechanical descriptors

TL;DR: A new method is introduced that combines machine-learned reaction representation with selected quantum mechanical descriptors to predict regio-selectivity in general substitution reactions, and requires approximately only 70 ms per reaction to predict the selectivity from reaction SMILES strings.
Journal ArticleDOI

Catalytic, Enantioselective Synthesis of Cyclic Carbamates from Dialkyl Amines by CO2-Capture: Discovery, Development, and Mechanism

TL;DR: An enantioselective synthesis of cyclic carbamates in which carbon dioxide engages an unsaturated basic amine is described, facilitated by a bifunctional organocatalyst designed to stabilize a carbamic acid intermediate while activating it toward subsequent enantiOSElective carbon-oxygen bond formation.
