ChemReactSeek: an artificial intelligence-guided chemical reaction protocol design using retrieval-augmented large language models

We introduce ChemReactSeek, an advanced artificial intelligence platform that integrates retrieval-augmented generation using large language models (LLMs) to automate the design of chemical reaction protocols. The system employs DeepSeek-v3 to extract and structure data from scientific literature, enabling the construction of a specialized knowledge base focused on hydrogenation reactions. By combining FAISS-based semantic search with LLM-driven reasoning, ChemReactSeek generates executable reaction conditions, which we further validate through experiments on heterogeneous hydrogenation.
