Why choose alkenes bearing electron-withdrawing groups as acceptors for radical addition? How do different EWGs affect yield and stereoselectivity? | [

"In Soรณs' study inorganic Lewis acid catalysis was used, causing the coordination between substrate and catalyst to be unable to distinguish different transition states, leading to 4b and 4c being formed in a 1:1 ratio; whereas this method achieves high enantioselectivity through a chiral Brรธnsted acid.",

RxnBench: A Benchmark for Chemical Reaction Figure Understanding
๐ Benchmark Summary
RxnBench (SF-QA) is a visual question answering (VQA) benchmark comprising 1,525 multiple-choice questions (MCQs) at the PhD-level of organic chemistry reaction understanding.
The benchmark is built from 305 scientific figures drawn from high-impact OpenAssess journals. For each figure, domain experts carefully designed five multiple-choice VQA questions targeting the interpretation of organic reaction diagrams. These questions were further refined through multiple rounds of rigorous review and revision to ensure both clarity and scientific accuracy. The questions cover a variety of types, including the description of chemical reaction images, extraction of reaction content, recognition of molecules or Markush structures, and determination of mechanisms. This benchmark challenges visual-language models on their foundational knowledge of organic chemistry, multimodal contextual reasoning, and chemical reasoning skills.
The benchmark is released in both English and Chinese versions.
๐ Task Types
We categorize chemical reaction visual question answering tasks into six types:
- Type 0 โ Fact Extraction: Direct retrieval of textual or numerical information from reaction schemes.
- Type 1 โ Reagent Roles and Functions Identification: Identification of reagents and their functional roles, requiring chemical knowledge and reaction-type awareness.
- Type 2 โ Reaction Mechanism and Process Understanding: Interpretation of reaction progression, including intermediates, catalytic cycles, and mechanistic steps.
- Type 3 โ Comparative Analysis and Reasoning: Comparative evaluation, causal explanation, or outcome prediction under varying conditions.
- Type 4 โ Multi-step Synthesis and Global Understanding: Comprehension of multi-step pathways, step-to-step coherence, and overall synthetic design.
- Type 5 โ Chemical Structure Recognition: Extraction and reasoning-based parsing of chemical structures in SMILES or E-SMILES (as defined in the MolParser paper).
