Information and data science algorithms were combined to predict the outcome of an experiment in chemical engineering. Using the Scientific Method workflow, we started the journey with the formulation of a specific question. At the research stage, the common process of querying and reading articles on scientific databases was substituted by a systematic review with a built-in recursive data mining method. This procedure identifies a specific community of knowledge with the key concepts and experiments that are necessary to address the formulated question. A small subset of relevant articles from a very specific topic among thousands of papers was identified while assuring the loss of the least amount of information through the process. The secondary dataset was bigger than a common individual study. The process revealed the main ideas currently under study and identified optimal synthesis conditions to produce a chemical substance. Once the research step was finished, the experimental information was compiled and prepared for metaanalysis using a supervised learning algorithm. This is a hypothesis generation stage whereby the secondary dataset was transformed into experimental knowledge about a particular chemical reaction. Finally, the predicted sets of optimal conditions to produce the desired chemical compound were validated in the laboratory.
