Bielstein:
Bielstein is software that can br downloaded from the Chemistry
Library website and installed on your computer. It gives you the
ability to connect to an online database and pull out information
regarding the synthesis of a compound, the physical properties,
characterization data, and all relevant references. It offers the
ability to search using structures as a starting material, product,
or any reagent in a reaction and find all reactions that match the
criteria. You can also specify both the starting material and product
and find all relevant reactions. Once a compound is located in the
database, the information will be presented as hits. Within each
hit, reactions are given, and physical properties (bp, mp, etc.)
and characterization data using different instruments (esr, nmr,
mass spec, uv, etc.) is given too.
(2) Scifinder:
Search by chemical substance, reaction, product, chemical structure,
author, etc. Relevant references are then displayed and can be sorted.
We can also obtain information on commercial resources of compounds.
