CAS SciFinder is the latest scientific information solution from CAS, a division of the American Chemical Society. In addition to the reference, substance, reaction and supplier content, it includes relevance-ranked results, step-by-step procedures and protocols, citation mapping, biosequence searching, retrosynthetic analysis, patent landscape mapping, touch-screen enabled structure drawing and much more - all accessible in a simple, easy-to-use interface.

On SciFinder, a database for chemical and materials science. In addition to literature reviews, standards and material descriptions are also available. It also includes MethodsNow-Synthesis, which provides detailed information on synthetic methods and processes, PatentPak, which processes patents, and the Retrosynthesis Planner, which can be used to plan retrosynthesis processes.

In 2023, the University will have access to the publisher's most comprehensive service, the SciFinder Discovery Platform, which will provide access to the following content in addition to SciFinder:

- CAS Analytical Methods, a collection of analytical methods from journals

- CAS Formulus, a collection of specifications from patents, journals and product brochures

- ChemZent, Chemisches Zentralblat, the world's oldest German journal of chemical abstracts from 1830 to 1969


With CAS SciFinder, you can access:

- Relevance scoring of reference results

- Enhanced workflow tools (e.g., live search history, auto-suggested search queries, multi-tab browsing)

- Experimental and predictive retrosynthetic analysis for known and novel substances

- Biosequence searching (BLAST, CDR, and Motif)

- Touchscreen-enabled structure drawing with ChemDoodle

- Enhanced, visual citation mapping (i.e., references citing and cited by)

- Substance and biosequence search results visualization with Chemscape and Bioscape Analysis

- Enhanced view and navigation of full-text patents with PatentPak®

- Detailed synthetic methods

- Searchable NMR spectra

- Extended experimental spectra coverage
