arXiv:2505. 08774v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Designing molecules that are both property-optimal and readily synthesizable is a central challenge in drug discovery.
arXiv:2608. 07454v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: The total synthesis of a complex molecule is among the most demanding intellectual and experimental feats in chemistry: a chemist must plan many steps ahead for how to assemble simple building blocks into an intricate target, devise backup strategies, and anticipate procedural challenges.

arXiv:2606. 11256v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Designing molecules with target properties is most useful when candidate structures are accompanied by feasible synthetic routes.
arXiv:2607. 01105v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: We present SynLaD, a latent diffusion framework for small-molecule generation that unifies ligand-based drug design objectives (what to make) with synthetic accessibility (how to make it).
arXiv:2602. 04119v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: The application of generative models for experimental drug discovery campaigns is severely limited by the difficulty of designing molecules de novo that can be synthesized in practice.
arXiv:2607. 12488v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Molecular optimization in drug discovery, materials design, and catalysis requires searching vast chemical spaces under tight evaluation budgets, since high-fidelity oracles and experimental measurements are costly.
arXiv:2608. 06961v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Early-stage molecular design is an iterative process, not just a task of generating molecules.
arXiv:2606. 23745v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: We present JEDEL, a framework for generating synthesis-ready DNA-encoded libraries (DELs) directly from three-dimensional pharmacophore representations of active ligands.
arXiv:2606. 00008v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Multi-objective molecular optimization requires searching vast chemical spaces under conflicting objectives, where early design decisions strongly constrain downstream outcomes.
MolDesignBench is a new benchmark for evaluating large language model (LLM)-based agents in scenario‑grounded molecular design. It contains 2,000 generation and optimization tasks that blend implicit narrative requirements with explicit property and functional‑group constraints, including infeasible cases, and require the use of 17 specialized chemistry tools. Experiments with leading LLMs show low success rates (best ~43%) and highlight failures in implicit‑constraint reasoning, infeasibility detection, and tool usage, underscoring the benchmark’s role in identifying key bottlenecks for future research.
arXiv:2609.00189v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Goal-directed optimization is essential for steering molecular generators to propose candidates with desired properties. However, it is often implement...
