Beilstein Database

This database changed its names and interface in (2009). Please use the new database Reaxys This link will remain active only through December 31, 2011 in order for sites to archive their statistics.

Beilstein is the world's largest organic chemical database. The chronological index dates from the eighteenth century and consists of over 8 million compounds, 10 million chemical reaction references, and over 35 million associated chemical, physical, and biological property records. The system also includes some 600,000 abstracts and titles excerpted from the organic chemical literature since 1980. All of this information is linked by more than 50 million hyperlinks which let scientists access exactly the information they need when they need it. Updated quarterly.

This is the Crossfire version of Beilstein, which includes journals (Excluding Organic Syntheses from 1980 to date, and the early issues of SynLett and Organic Letters) only, no patents or monograph series. Special Instructions:

Note: Crossfire Beilstein runs approximately one year behind current literature because the editors extensively extract actual property values.
