Step 1: Open the Reaction Recommender
Choose the Reaction Recommender tool from the dashboard.
Step 2: Enter Your Reaction Details
Enter the type of reaction. Enter the starting materials and products by pressing Editor and drawing them, or type their name, CAS number, or other identifier. Add any additional notes to constrain the results — for example: "Do not recommend temperatures above 100°C".
Press Recommend conditions. The analysis will take 20–30 minutes to complete.
Step 3: Save Your Workflow
Save your workflow so you can open it again later. Name your workflow and either attach it to an existing Research Project or save it standalone — you can add it to a project at any time.
- If you have previously created a project in the Research Projects section, choose it and press Create workflow and add to project.
- If you have not yet created a project, save the workflow without one.
