Localize, Then Reason: Visual Latent Structural Reasoning for Molecular Properties and Edits

Local chemical perception and property reasoning are both essential for understanding how molecular structure determines properties. Current LLM-based chemical reasoning methods either receive SMILES/molecular images together with descriptions of local motifs, or reason directly from molecular images. Neither approach enables the model to focus on chemically meaningful regions before reasoning. To address this gap, we propose Visual Latent Structural Reasoning (VLSR), an end-to-end framework that jointly learns localization and reasoning from molecular images. Central to our approach is a loca
