A Brief Introduction to Chemical Reaction Optimization

Chemical Reviews, Год журнала: 2023, Номер 123(6), С. 3089 - 3126

Опубликована: Фев. 23, 2023

From the start of a synthetic chemist's training, experiments are conducted based on recipes from textbooks and manuscripts that achieve clean reaction outcomes, allowing scientist to develop practical skills some chemical intuition. This procedure is often kept long into researcher's career, as new developed similar protocols, intuition-guided deviations through learning failed experiments. However, when attempting understand systems interest, it has been shown model-based, algorithm-based, miniaturized high-throughput techniques outperform human intuition optimization in much more time- material-efficient manner; this covered detail paper. As many chemists not exposed these undergraduate teaching, leads disproportionate number scientists wish optimize their reactions but unable use methodologies or simply unaware existence. review highlights basics, cutting-edge, modern well its relation process scale-up can thereby serve reference for inspired each techniques, detailing several respective applications.

Опубликована: Окт. 27, 2022

General conditions for organic reactions are important but rare, and efforts to identify them usually consider only narrow regions of chemical space. Discovering more general reaction requires considering vast space derived from a large matrix substrates crossed with high-dimensional conditions, rendering exhaustive experimentation impractical. Here, we report simple closed-loop workflow that leverages data-guided down-selection, uncertainty-minimizing machine learning, robotic discover conditions. Application the challenging consequential problem heteroaryl Suzuki-Miyaura cross-coupling identified double average yield relative widely used benchmark was previously developed using traditional approaches. This study provides practical road map solving multidimensional optimization problems search spaces.
