RESUMO
Traditional optimization methods using one variable at a time approach waste time and chemicals and assume that different parameters are independent from one another. Hence, a simpler, more practical, and rapid process for predicting reaction conditions that can be applied to several manufacturing environmentally sustainable processes is highly desirable. In this study, biaryl compounds were synthesized efficiently using an organic Brønsted acid catalyst in a flow system. Bayesian optimization-assisted multi-parameter screening, which employs one-hot encoding and appropriate acquisition function, rapidly predicted the suitable conditions for the synthesis of 2-amino-2'-hydroxy-biaryls (maximum yield of 96%). The established protocol was also applied in an optimization process for the efficient synthesis of 2,2'-dihydroxy biaryls (up to 97% yield). The optimized reaction conditions were successfully applied to gram-scale synthesis. We believe our algorithm can be beneficial as it can screen a reactor design without complicated quantification and descriptors.
RESUMO
Noise is ubiquitous in real space that hinders detection of minute yet important signals in electrical sensors. Here, the authors report on a deep learning approach for denoising ionic current in resistive pulse sensing. Electrophoretically-driven translocation motions of single-nanoparticles in a nano-corrugated nanopore are detected. The noise is reduced by a convolutional auto-encoding neural network, designed to iteratively compare and minimize differences between a pair of waveforms via a gradient descent optimization. This denoising in a high-dimensional feature space is demonstrated to allow detection of the corrugation-derived wavy signals that cannot be identified in the raw curves nor after digital processing in frequency domains under the given noise floor, thereby enabled in-situ tracking to electrokinetic analysis of fast-moving single- and double-nanoparticles. The ability of the unlabeled learning to remove noise without compromising temporal resolution may be useful in solid-state nanopore sensing of protein structure and polynucleotide sequence.

A highly atom-economical enantioselective organocatalyzed Rauhut-Currier and [3+2] annulation sequence has been established by using a flow system. Suitable flow conditions were explored through reaction screening of multiple parameters using machine learning. Eventually, functionalized chiral spirooxindole analogues were obtained in high yield with good ee as a single diastereomer within one minute.
