A chemical language model for reticular materials design
Reticular chemistry has enabled the synthesis of tens of thousands of metal-organic frameworks (MOFs), yet the discovery of new materials still relies largely on intuition-driven linker design and iterative experimentation. As a result, researchers explore only a small fraction of the vast chemical space accessible to reticular materials, limiting the systematic discovery of frameworks with targeted properties. Here, we introduce Nexerra-R1, a building-block chemical language model that enables inverse design in reticular chemistry through the targeted generation of organic linkers. Rather than generating complete frameworks directly, Nexerra-R1 operates at the level of molecular building...
