This study combines high-throughput experimentation (HTE) at a nanomolar scale with computational graph neural networks (GNNs) to identify suitable substrates for late-stage C-H alkylation using Minisci-type chemistry. GNNs were trained using experimental data from in-house HTE and literature, then used to predict the coupling of 3180 heterocyclic building blocks with various sp3-rich carboxylic acids. This led to the synthesis and characterization of 30 novel, functionally modified molecules.
