• Authors: Wenhao Gao, Priyanka Raghavan, Ron Shprints, Connor W. Coley
• Abstract summary: We introduce a novel pre-training strategy, substrate scope contrastive learning, which learns atomic representations tailored to chemical reactivity. We focus on 20,798 aryl halides in the CAS Content Collection spanning thousands of publications to learn a representation of aryl halide reactivity. This work not only presents a chemistry-tailored neural network pre-training strategy to learn reactivity-aligned atomic representations, but also marks a first-of-its-kind approach to benefit from the human bias in substrate scope design.

• Abstract: Learning molecular representation is a critical step in molecular machine learning that significantly influences modeling success, particularly in data-scarce situations. The concept of broadly pre-training neural networks has advanced fields such as computer vision, natural language processing, and protein engineering. However, similar approaches for small organic molecules have not achieved comparable success. In this work, we introduce a novel pre-training strategy, substrate scope contrastive learning, which learns atomic representations tailored to chemical reactivity. This method considers the grouping of substrates and their yields in published substrate scope tables as a measure of their similarity or dissimilarity in terms of chemical reactivity. We focus on 20,798 aryl halides in the CAS Content Collection spanning thousands of publications to learn a representation of aryl halide reactivity. We validate our pre-training approach through both intuitive visualizations and comparisons to traditional reactivity descriptors and physical organic chemistry principles. The versatility of these embeddings is further evidenced in their application to yield prediction, regioselectivity prediction, and the diverse selection of new substrates. This work not only presents a chemistry-tailored neural network pre-training strategy to learn reactivity-aligned atomic representations, but also marks a first-of-its-kind approach to benefit from the human bias in substrate scope design.

We argue in favor of directly optimizing the receiver operating characteristic (ROC) in such cases, due to its robustness to class imbalance.
