Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR) spectroscopy is the gold standard for molecular structure elucidation, yet interpreting complex spectra for unknown molecules remains a bottleneck reliant on human expertise. While artificial intelligence has advanced this field, current methods face a critical trade-off: database retrieval cannot identify novel scaffolds, while de novo molecular structure elucidation models operate as black boxes, lacking the atom-level interpretability required for rigorous scientific validation.
The paper introduces DiffGCMS, a discrete graph diffusion model that generates molecular structures directly from GC–EI–MS spectra, and couples it with a large language model for post‑processing. In the first stage, DiffGCMS produces candidate structures; the LLM then validates, repairs, and reranks these candidates while offering interpretable explanations of fragment‑ion peaks. On a large NIST 20 test set, the combined approach improves accuracy and ensures 100% candidate validity for small molecules, demonstrating the value of spectrum‑aware post‑processing.
