SciFinder-n: ** SciFinder-n ** Now Available

New Features (click the icon for an example)

Retrosynthesis Planner: Generate a full retrosynthetic analysis of all known synthetic routes for a given Molecule; organize into easy to navigate synthetic plans; and access commercial availability and pricing.

PatentPak: Full-text searching of 18 million patents, with chemical substances marked so they can be easily found within the patent.

MethodsNow: Step by step procedures and protocols from journal articles and patents, found in the "Experimental Protocols" section for the reaction.

ChemDoodle: Touch-friendly structure editor for drawing on phones and tablets. Structures drawn in ChemDoodle will be the same in CAS Draw, and vice versa.

Additional Enhancements

• “Search All” to search across the substance, reaction, and references databases.
• Familiar searching options: booleans, truncation/wildcards, parentheses, e.g. (flavor OR odor) AND menthol.
• Combined keyword and structure searching.
• Autosuggesting search terms.
• Relevancy-based sorting of results now the default.
• Reaction search results grouped by scheme (same reactants and products).
• Live History – edit and rerun past searches.
• Additional filter functionality in the results: setting publication date ranges, searching within the filter categories along with frequency and natural order, substance role filter if chemical included in reference searches.
• Clearer labeling to connect you to full-text articles, now with UC-eLinks included in the options.
• Citation mapping to quickly see cited and citing articles.
• Improvements in combined search functionality: two authors, author(s)/journal, author(s)/organization, two substance property data points.
• Easy to keep up with new releases of SciFinder-n and get help from the account page.
• Automatic deduping of CAS/Medline records (coming later this summer).
• Ability to have multiple tabs running without getting kicked out of sessions.
