For CROs, small biotechs and labs without a licence

Reaction conditions without a Reaxys or SciFinder licence

Planning a coupling and have no access to the big reaction databases? ReproRank gives you real procedures from pharmaceutical patents, ranked by how many independent organisations used them on substrates like yours. Suzuki–Miyaura couplings today, more coupling types to follow.

The problem

The best reaction data sits behind institutional licences.

Reaxys and SciFinder are the standard tools for finding how a reaction has been run before. They are licensed per organisation, and for a CRO of fifteen chemists, a five-person biotech or a group whose university does not subscribe, that licence is often out of reach.

The usual fallbacks are slow or unreliable: reading patents one by one on Google Patents, searching journal articles, asking a general chatbot that may invent a procedure, or going with the conditions you always use. None of them tells you which procedure has actually worked for other people on molecules like yours.

What ReproRank gives you

Real procedures, ranked by who has reproduced them.

  • Real procedures, not suggestions.Every recommendation is a catalyst, ligand, base, solvent and temperature taken from a published patent example, with a link to the source.
  • Ranked by independent use.Each procedure shows how many independent organisations used it on chemistry like yours.
  • Complete conditions.What you read is what you can set up.
  • Honest about thin precedent.When few similar couplings exist, the result says so instead of dressing up a single example as consensus.
  • Chemist-curated data.About 19,500 Suzuki couplings from 2,161 pharmaceutical patents (2003–2025), checked by a medicinal chemist.

How it compares

Not a replacement. The part that matters when you plan a coupling.

ReproRank does not replace a full reaction database. If you have Reaxys or SciFinder, it can sit alongside them and save the time spent reading through hits. If you don’t, it gives you the part of that work that matters most when you plan a coupling.

Reaxys and SciFinder are trademarks of their respective owners. ReproRank is independent and not affiliated with either.
Questions

Before you try it.

Is it free?

The pilot is free for 30 days, with as many searches as you like. Pricing for small teams will be set after the pilot.

Which reactions does it cover?

Suzuki–Miyaura couplings today. Other common medicinal chemistry couplings are next.

Do I have to share confidential structures?

No. Published or patented chemistry is enough to try it. Structures and names you enter are never stored, not even as a hash, and the service is hosted in the EU.

Where does the data come from?

From pharmaceutical patents filed between 2003 and 2025, checked by a medicinal chemist.

Who is behind it?

ReproRank is built by Matthieu Desroses, a medicinal chemist with more than 25 years of experience in drug discovery, based in Stockholm, Sweden. More about the founder.
