Discovery stage: Synthesis planning

Predicts reaction products from reactants and reagents. Trained on the Open Reaction Database, so it generalises to unseen chemistry without fine-tuning.

Model Card for ReactionT5v2-forward

This is a ReactionT5 pre-trained to predict the products of reactions. You can use the demo here.

Model Sources

• Repository: https://github.com/sagawatatsuya/ReactionT5v2
• Paper: https://jcheminf.biomedcentral.com/articles/10.1186/s13321-025-01075-4
• Demo: https://huggingface.co/spaces/sagawa/ReactionT5

Uses

You can use this model for forward reaction prediction or fine-tune this model with your dataset.

How to Get Started with the Model

Use the code below to get started with the model.

from transformers import AutoTokenizer, AutoModelForSeq2SeqLM

tokenizer = AutoTokenizer.from_pretrained("sagawa/ReactionT5v2-forward", return_tensors="pt")
model = AutoModelForSeq2SeqLM.from_pretrained("sagawa/ReactionT5v2-forward")

inp = tokenizer('REACTANT:COC(=O)C1=CCCN(C)C1.O.[Al+3].[H-].[Li+].[Na+].[OH-]REAGENT:C1CCOC1', return_tensors='pt')
output = model.generate(**inp, num_beams=1, num_return_sequences=1, return_dict_in_generate=True, output_scores=True)
output = tokenizer.decode(output['sequences'][0], skip_special_tokens=True).replace(' ', '').rstrip('.')
output # 'CN1CCC=C(CO)C1'

Training Details

Training Procedure

We used the Open Reaction Database (ORD) dataset for model training. In addition, we used USPTO_MIT dataset's test split to prevent data leakage. The command used for training is the following. For more information about data preprocessing and training, please refer to the paper and GitHub repository.

cd task_forward
python train.py \
    --output_dir='t5' \
    --epochs=100 \
    --lr=1e-3 \
    --batch_size=32 \
    --input_max_len=150 \
    --target_max_len=100 \
    --weight_decay=0.01 \
    --evaluation_strategy='epoch' \
    --save_strategy='epoch' \
    --logging_strategy='epoch' \
    --train_data_path='../data/preprocessed_ord_train.csv' \
    --valid_data_path='../data/preprocessed_ord_valid.csv' \
    --test_data_path='../data/preprocessed_ord_test.csv' \
    --USPTO_test_data_path='../data/USPTO_MIT/MIT_separated/test.csv' \
    --disable_tqdm \
