Reaxys offers a comprehensive and diverse set of solubility data that can be utilized to create predictive models, demonstrating a greater diversity than the Huuskonen data set. The document emphasizes the importance of the training set's nature and size for effective predictions, while also noting that models perform best with compounds similar to those in the training set. Additionally, Reaxys provides extensive references and conditions for measured properties, making it a valuable resource for model building in chemistry.

What We Will Learn

3. Creating Solubility Models with Reaxys |
• In addition to the well-known reactions and compounds, Reaxys is filled with
hundreds of different measured properties reported for the compounds
• Each property is associated with a reference
• Each property has a “cluster” of values such as measurement temperature, pressure,
solvents etc. describing the conditions of the measurement.
• In many cases multiple measurements are reported by different authors at
different times for a particular value.
• A mean, median, and standard deviation can be assessed for the value. Each value is
associated with a reference.
• One can use this data, combined with the chemical structures of the
compounds to make structure-based predictive models for these properties.
• One can then predict the value of new or proposed compounds from their chemical
structures.

17. Creating Solubility Models with Reaxys |
• Standard Error 3.5 log units
• Issue is likely that many molecules
from Reaxys are “outside” the
structural diversity of the Huuskonen
data set
• Illustrates a significant issue with
modeling –
• Generally predictions are best when
the molecule are similar to the training
set.
