Researchers have developed Solvent, an 8 billion parameter LLM designed for multi-step retrosynthesis, a complex chemical process. Solvent utilizes long-horizon reasoning to plan synthesis routes, verify building block availability, and adapt its strategy based on feedback. After a reinforcement learning boost, Solvent achieved a 61.86% score across four benchmarks, outperforming smaller models and some trillion-parameter LLMs in this specialized domain. AI
