Five good reasons to use Reaxys
1. The wealth of experimentally validated data which can be searched, filtered and ranked to find the most relevant answer to a specific question quickly. 2. Functionality beyond data searching: synthesis planner, results management, smart analysis tools for fast evaluation. 3. No user or usage limits: flat-rate for institution-wide access at any time. 4. The intuitive interface and online educational material help reduce your training efforts. 5. Interoperable: linking to SciVerse Scopus, fulltexts at publishers and patent offices. Access to your own library settings via OpenURL resolver is possible.

An example of a researcher’s question:
“ My patron is looking for a preparation of CAS RN 58-55-9 ?! ”
A time consuming way to find the answer…
1.
Find translation for CAS RN into chemical name 1,3-dimethyl-7H-purine-2,6-dione Do literature search across publishers for this substance and find reactions to synthesize it Scan available articles; contact librarian to order articles from journals that are unavailable at institution; read and compare all articles Evaluate which fits best with the problem (take into account certain reaction conditions) Start synthesizing according to description in article

Reaxys is designed to provide explicit answers
• What chemistry is known about a certain research topic/effect? • Which compounds have a certain physicochemical property? • Which compounds show certain biological effects? • Does a compound exist and if so what is known about it? • Is it toxic? • What are its physical characteristics (melting point, solubility, etc?) • Any biological effects known? • How can I get a given compound? • Can I make it and if so how? • Can I buy it? • Can I make something like it? • Can I make it better?
Filters for grouping and analyzing. E.g. show “green” chemistry by using H20 as your solvent
