ReaxysA powerful data-searching tool designed to retrieve chemical reactions, substance data and other related information. It can be searched in a number of ways, including chemical structure, formula, and physical property parameters. Three databases were combined to create the Reaxys database: the Beilstein database, the Gmelin database, and the Patent Chemistry database.
