Abstract

value of 72 nM. Furthermore, a machine learning-based model (SeNEx-ML) was established for reaction yield prediction, achieving 80% accuracy in binary classification and 70% balanced accuracy in ternary classification. These results demonstrated that this chemistry serves as a powerful tool to bridge the selenium chemical space with the existing chemical world, offering transformative potential across multidisciplinary fields.
