Open-weight retrosynthesis model for molecular synthesis planning
Microsoft Research published RetroChimera, an open-weight retrosynthesis model that predicts synthesis routes for small molecules by combining two complementary neural models—R-SMILES 2 and NeuralLoc—using a learned ensembling strategy.
In blind tests, expert chemists preferred RetroChimera's reaction predictions over preceding models and literature reactions.
The implementation and weights are available on GitHub and via Microsoft Foundry.

In blind tests, expert chemists preferred disconnections of complex molecules suggested by RetroChimera over those obtained from its constituent sub-models, as well as those from more established approaches, and even from the test set itself.
