Two new research papers introduce novel frameworks for enhancing retrosynthesis prediction in organic synthesis and drug discovery. RetroMPA, a molecular property-aware auxiliary framework, acts as a plug-and-play module to improve existing deep learning models by injecting chemical knowledge, showing an average accuracy increase of 5.50% on the USPTO-50K dataset. ConfRetro, a 3D-aware template-free method, leverages molecular conformer information and spatial structure through specialized attention mechanisms to achieve new state-of-the-art performance on the same datasets.
