What are the Key Features of SciFinder for Catalysis?
SciFinder includes several key functionalities that are particularly useful for catalysis research:
Substance Search: Allows users to find detailed information about catalytic substances, including their structures, properties, and commercial availability. Reaction Search: Facilitates the discovery of known catalytic reactions, including reaction schemes, conditions, yields, and catalysts used. Reference Search: Provides access to a vast collection of scientific literature, including journal articles, patents, and conference proceedings related to catalysis. Structure Drawing: Enables users to draw chemical structures to find specific molecules or reactions, which is particularly useful for designing and optimizing new catalysts. Retrosynthetic Analysis: Assists in identifying synthetic pathways and understanding the role of catalysts in multi-step synthetic routes.
