Abstract
A simple NMR assay was applied to monitor the tendency of compounds to self-aggregate in aqueous media. The observation of unusual spectral trends as a function of compound concentration appears to be signatory of the formation of self-assemblies. (1)H NMR resonances of aggregating compounds were sensitive to the presence of a range of molecular assemblies in solution including large molecular-size entities, smaller multimers, and mixtures of assembled species. The direct observation of aggregates via unusual NMR spectra also correlated with promiscuous behavior of molecules in off-target in vitro pharmacology assays. This empirical assay can have utility for predicting compound promiscuity and should complement predictive methods that principally rely on the computing of descriptors such as lipophilicity (cLogP) and topological surface area (TPSA). This assay should serve as a practical tool for medicinal chemists to monitor compound attributes in aqueous solution and various pharmacologically relevant media, as demonstrated herein.

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
