81 chemistry tools — literature, calculations, retrosynthesis

概覽

AI 產生的概覽

一套化學研究用的 MCP 伺服器,提供 81 個工具,涵蓋文獻檢索、化合物資料、逆合成、實驗桌計算與引用格式整理。

可以做什麼
  • 跨 Crossref、OpenAlex 與 Semantic Scholar 檢索論文,追蹤引用關係,查找作者檔案、預印本與開放取用 PDF
  • 查詢化合物、理化性質、安全資料、晶體結構、質譜、結合親和力與蛋白質結構
  • 執行計算化學:逆合成、產物預測、原子對映、pKa、溶解度、ADMET 與 NMR 位移預測
  • 將胜肽序列轉為 SMILES、產生胜肽庫、評估合成可行性並解析 MS/MS 離子
  • 使用實驗桌計算器與參考查詢:莫耳濃度、反應投料量、命名反應、保護基、溶劑、後處理、顯色劑、緩衝液與安全卡
  • 整理引用與參考文獻清單,產生實驗模板,查詢期刊要求並準備補充資料清單
適用情境
適合化學研究者與學生,讓助理在同一處協助文獻回顧、合成路線規劃、反應開發、實驗計算與論文撰寫準備。多數參考與計算工具不需任何設定即可使用。
執行需求
以 Python 套件透過 pip 在本機安裝,並由 Claude Desktop 或 Claude Code 設定以 stdio 啟動。選用的免費 API 金鑰可解鎖更多工具:ROWAN_API_KEY 用於 pKa、溶解度、ADMET 與 NMR 預測,RXN_API_KEY 用於逆合成與產物預測;另有 Semantic Scholar、Unpaywall、Materials Project、Web of Science 與 EPA CompTox 的選用金鑰。金鑰可存於本機 env 檔或寫入伺服器設定。
安裝前請注意
多個工具會將查詢送往第三方科學 API,檢索詞與結構資訊會離開本機。選用金鑰如 ROWAN_API_KEY、RXN_API_KEY、WOS_API_KEY、COMPTOX_API_KEY 存於本機 env 檔或設定中,需妥善保護。pKa、ADMET、NMR 與逆合成結果為模型預測,不能取代實驗驗證或安全評估。

安裝

在 SourceWeft 中

  1. 開啟 儀表板中的 Labmate Mcp,將其新增到工作區。
  2. 為需要使用其工具的對話啟用該服務。

Desktop only,透過 STDIO。 STDIO 服務會啟動本機處理程序,因此需要 SourceWeft 桌面主機。

🚀 Quick Start

bash
pip install labmate-mcp

Then add this to your Claude config:

Claude Desktop  →  claude_desktop_config.json

On macOS: ~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json On Windows: %APPDATA%\Claude\claude_desktop_config.json

json
{  "mcpServers": {    "labmate": {      "command": "labmate-mcp"    }  }}
Claude Code  →  .mcp.json in your project root
json
{  "mcpServers": {    "labmate": {      "command": "labmate-mcp"    }  }}
Docker
bash
docker build -t labmate-mcp .docker run -it labmate-mcp

Restart Claude. 61 of 81 tools work out of the box — no API keys needed.

[!TIP] Want retrosynthesis, pKa prediction, or NMR shifts? Run labmate-mcp --setup to add free API keys.


💬 What Can I Do With This?

Just talk to Claude naturally:

"Find the most cited papers on copper-catalyzed C–H activation from the last 5 years"

Searches across multiple databases, ranks by citations, and gives you abstracts and AI-generated summaries.

"Suzuki coupling, 150 mg aryl bromide (MW 261), 5 mol% Pd(PPh₃)₄, 1.3 eq boronic acid, 2.5 eq K₂CO₃ — how much of everything?"

Calculates exact masses for each reagent with your substrate as the limiting reagent.

"I'm developing a new reaction. What should I be thinking about?"

Walks you through a structured reaction development checklist — covering everything from initial mechanistic hypotheses to scope exploration and scale-up.

"I need to protect a primary amine — stable to acid, cleavable by hydrogenation"

Compares protecting groups against a stability matrix and suggests the best match (here: Cbz).

"Format these DOIs as an ACS bibliography, then give me an experimental template for a Buchwald–Hartwig"

Generates a numbered reference list and a fill-in-the-blank procedure with suggested workup and safety notes.

More things you can ask
Ask Claude…What happens
"What are the NMR solvent peaks for DMSO-d₆?"Residual ¹H: 2.50 ppm (quintet), ¹³C: 39.52 ppm, water: 3.33 ppm
"Generate 20 cyclic pentapeptides with some D-amino acids"Returns SMILES with MW, logP, and TPSA for each
"I want to submit to JACS — what do I need to know?"Word limits, abstract length, citation format, graphical abstract specs
"Retrosynthesis of ibuprofen"Multi-step route back to commercial starting materials
"pKa of 4-nitrophenol?"Quantum-chemistry prediction via Rowan Science
"Cooling bath for −42 °C?"MeCN / dry ice, or chlorobenzene / dry ice
