BEILSTEIN
BEILSTEIN is a major structure and factual database in organic chemistry. The organic substance records contain the critically reviewed and evaluated documents from the Beilstein Handbook of Organic Chemistry as well as data from 176 leading journals in organic chemistry covering the period from 1779 to the present.
A substance record contains the BEILSTEIN Registry Number, the CAS Registry Number, structure diagram, molecular formula etc., all of which are searchable and displayable. Also searchable and displayable in the BEILSTEIN database is information on physical and chemical data as well as pharmacological and ecological data for a specific substance.
The database is in English, except for some text fields that also contain German terms.
Titles, abstracts, and bibliographic data of the citations in BEILSTEIN, published from 1980 to the present, make the BEILSTEIN Abstracts database (BABS).
