Reaxys is a chemistry database that provides information about millions of chemical structures, reactions, and properties. It also lists journal articles and other publications related to them. Reaxys includes substance property and reaction data, synthesis options, experimental procedures, patent information, and citations. Its data is derived from patents, journals, the Beilstein Handbook for Organic Chemistry, Gmelin Handbook of Inorganic Chemistry, Chemical Patent Database, PubChem, and more. Reaxys is a great resource for researchers who are investigating organic synthesis or searching for data on physical, chemical, spectral, bioactivity, or toxicological properties of chemical compounds. May also be referred to as Beilstein CrossFire Commander. Coverage dates: 1771-present
