SynTemp
Graph-based Reaction Templates/Rules Extraction
Overview
This repository is dedicated to the systematic extraction of reaction rules from reaction databases. Our primary focus is the computational analysis and transformation of molecular reactions into a structured set of rules. This work facilitates a deeper understanding of reaction mechanisms and pathways. The SynTemp framework is organized into four main phases:
- AAMs Inference: Based on ensemble AAMs for accurate atom mapping.
- Imaginary Transition State (ITS) Completion: Enhances ITS by incorporating hydrogen inference to fully capture the reaction mechanism.
- Reaction Center Detection and Extension: Focuses on identifying and extending the core active sites of reactions.
- Hierarchical Clustering: Groups extended reaction centers or partial ITS to analyze reaction patterns.
The general framework and its components are depicted in Figures A, B, and C below. Please visit full user guide & API reference for detailed examples, configuration options, and best practices.

Downstream Applications
- Templates Analysis: We have developed topological descriptors for ITS graphs to encapsulate the essential information of templates.
- Rules Application: Observes the trade-off between radii and coverage/novelty metrics. Increased coverage tends to reduce the number of output solutions due to the complexities of subgraph matching within the DPO framework. However, it also decreases novelty. This trade-off serves as a precursor to our forthcoming research, which will focus on developing a constrained framework for synthesis planning.

Step-by-Step Installation Guide
Python Installation: Ensure that Python 3.11 or later is installed on your system. You can download it from python.org.
Creating a Virtual Environment (Optional but Recommended): It's recommended to use a virtual environment to avoid conflicts with other projects or system-wide packages. Use the following commands to create and activate a virtual environment:
bash
python -m venv syntemp-env
source syntemp-env/bin/activate # On Windows use `syntemp-env\Scripts\activate`
Or Conda
bash
conda create --name syntemp-env python=3.11
conda activate syntemp-env
- Install from PyPi: The easiest way to use SynTemp is by installing the PyPI package syntemp.
pip install syntemp
Optional if you want to install full version including three types of atom map
pip install syntemp[all]
- Verify Installation: After installation, you can verify that Syn Temp is correctly installed by running a simple test
bash
echo -e "R-id,reaction\n0,COC(=O)[C@H](CCCCNC(=O)OCc1ccccc1)NC(=O)Nc1cc(OC)cc(C(C)(C)C)c1O>>COC(=O)[C@H](CCCCN)NC(=O)Nc1cc(OC)cc(C(C)(C)C)c1O" > test.csv
python -m syntemp --data_path test.csv --rebalancing --id 'R-id' --rsmi 'reaction' --rerun_aam --fix_hydrogen --log_file ./log.txt --save_dir ./
Usage
Use in script
```python from syntemp.auto_template import AutoTemp
data = [{'R-id': 0, 'reactions': 'COC(=O)C(CCCCNC(=O)OCc1ccccc1)NC(=O)Nc1cc(OC)cc(C(C)(C)C)c1O.O>>COC(=O)C(CCCCN)NC(=O)Nc1cc(OC)cc(C(C)(C)C)c1O.O=C(O)OCc1ccccc1'}, {'R-id': 1, 'reactions': 'Nc1cccc2cnccc12.O=C(O)c1cc(N+[O-])c(Sc2c(Cl)cncc2Cl)s1>>O.O=C(Nc1cccc2cnccc12)c1cc(N+[O-])c(Sc2c(Cl)cncc2Cl)s1'}, {'R-id': 4, 'reactions': 'CCOc1ccc(Oc2ncnc3c2cnn3C2CCNCC2)c(F)c1.O=C(Cl)OC1CCCC1>>CCOc1ccc(Oc2ncnc3c2cnn3C2CCN(C(=O)OC3CCCC3)CC2)c(F)c1.Cl'}, {'R-id': 5, 'reactions': 'Cn1cnc(-c2cc(C#N)ccn2)c1Br.OB(O)c1ccc(-n2cccn2)cc1>>Cn1cnc(-c2cc(C#N)ccn2)c1-c1ccc(-n2cccn2)cc1.OB(O)Br'}, {'R-id': 6, 'reactions': 'CC1(C)OB(c2ccc(OCc3ccc4ccccc4n3)cc2)OC1(C)C.N#Cc1ccc(OC2CCCCO2)c(Br)c1>>CC1(C)OB(Br)OC1(C)C.N#Cc1ccc(OC2CCCCO2)c(-c2ccc(OCc3ccc4ccccc4n3)cc2)c1'}]
auto = AutoTemp( rebalancing=True, mappertypes=["rxnmapper", "graphormer", "localmapper"], id="R-id", rsmi="reactions", njobs=1, verbose=2, batchsize=1, jobtimeout=None, safemode=False, savedir=None, fix_hydrogen=True, )
(reactiondicts, templates, hiertemplates, itscorrect, uncertainhydrogen,) = auto.tempextract(data, libpath=None)
core_temp = templates[0]
# In order to perform forward prediction, you can use the following code: from synkit.IO import gmltoits from synkit.Synthesis.Reactor.synreactor import SynReactor reactor = SynReactor(substrate='COC(=O)C(CCCCNC(=O)OCc1ccccc1)NC(=O)Nc1cc(OC)cc(C(C)(C)C)c1O.O', template=gmltoits(coretemp[0]['gml']))
print(reactor.smarts) ```
Use in command line
bash
echo -e "R-id,reaction\n0,COC(=O)[C@H](CCCCNC(=O)OCc1ccccc1)NC(=O)Nc1cc(OC)cc(C(C)(C)C)c1O>>COC(=O)[C@H](CCCCN)NC(=O)Nc1cc(OC)cc(C(C)(C)C)c1O" > test.csv
python -m syntemp --data_path test.csv --rebalancing --id 'R-id' --rsmi 'reaction' --rerun_aam --fix_hydrogen --log_file ./log.txt --save_dir ./
