Resumen

En este artículo se describen los avances más recientes en la automatización de la química orgánica con un enfoque en la química medicinal. Diferentes plataformas han permitido la ejecución de cientos e incluso miles de reacciones en paralelo con el fin de acelerar el descubrimiento de un medicamento. Por otro lado, modelos de inteligencia artificial están siendo aplicados en química orgánica para diseñar experimentos con condiciones que aumenten la probabilidad de éxito. Estos avances en conjunto prometen revolucionar la síntesis orgánica y los campos de la industria que dependen de ella.
