Chemography‐guided analysis of a reaction path network for ethylene hydrogenation with a model Wilkinson's catalyst

Visualization and analysis of large chemical reaction networks become rather challenging when conventional graph-based approaches are used. As an alternative, we propose to use the chemical cartography ("chemography") approach, describing the data distribution on a 2-dimensional map. Here, the Generative Topographic Mapping (GTM) algorithm - an advanced chemography approach - has been applied to visualize the reaction path network of a simplified Wilkinson's catalyst-catalyzed hydrogenation containing some 10
