Chemical Search |
In Web of Science, you can:
The Chemical Search page is divided into three sections: A structure search may create two sets: a set of reaction records and a set of compound records. In this case, the same structure query will be listed twice on the search history table. A substructure search for a compound might find 25 compounds and 10 reactions. The 25 compounds will belong to one set and the 10 reactions to another set. Structure Drawing Plug-in To create structure queries, you need to have the structure drawing plug-in installed on your computer.

Combining Structure and Data Searches If you draw a structure and enter terms in compound data or reaction fields, Web of Science will automatically apply AND logic to the query. For example, if you draw a structure and enter a biological activity in the Compound Biol. Act. field, you will retrieve only compounds that match the structure you drew and have the biological activity you specified. Information About ... Did You Know ... Web of Science no longer supports structure searching on Macintosh computers. |
