Abstract
Aryl-substituted five-membered heteroaromatics have attracted great interest over the past years due to their presence in a large number of pharmaceuticals and natural products. Recently, an advance in the preparation of these scaffolds was achieved by employing a C-H functionalization strategy. This method allows easy access to these biaryl motifs by precluding the necessity of preparing specific coupling partners, although poor regioselectivity is sometimes observed when more than one reactive C-H is present on the substrate. In an effort to circumvent this liability, we envisioned the use of a carboxylic acid moiety as a blocking group that could be later functionalized or removed. Remarkably, the coupling was found to occur exclusively at the position previously occupied by the acid, even in the presence of a reactive C-H group. This selective transformation was also found to proceed with other heteroaromatic carboxylic acids, allowing for the preparation of a variety of aryl-substituted heteroaromatics that would be difficult to obtain via other methods.

Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
