Use for planning synthetic routes (including starting materials and intermediates), determining bioactivity and physical properties, and ascertaining the environmental fates of compounds. Indexes three primary data domains: substances, reactions, and literature. The substance domain stores structural information with associated facts and literature references, including chemical, physical, and bioactivity data. The reaction domain details the preparation of substances for investigating specific reaction pathways with reaction search queries. The literature domain includes citations, titles, and abstracts for over 175 journals, which are hyperlinked to the substance and reaction domain entries. The organic substance records contain documents from the Beilstein Handbook of Organic Chemistry. Includes over 8 million compounds; 9 million reactions; over 37 million associated chemical property and bioactivity records on, physical properties, chemical properties, pharmacodynamics, environmental toxicology, transport, distribution, and fate; over 750,000 abstracts and titles indexed from the primary organic chemical literature since 1980, and over 500,000 bioactive compounds.
