The Dictionary of Organic Compounds (formerly Heilbron) has built up a world-wide reputation over its 60 years of publication as an indispensable reference work for all chemists. The printed work is in its Sixth Edition with a second supplement due in 1997. The CD-ROM version is published on subscription with cumulative updates every six months.
Rely on DOC to point you in the right direction.
Perfect as a first point of reference, no other database comes close. Only those organic compounds of first line interest or importance to chemists have been selected for DOC to give you exceptionally well focused coverage in this area.
- Over 220,000 key compounds
- Sharp focus on Parent ring systems, synthons, bulk chemicals, speciality chemicals, key drugs, key atural products and interesting target molecules
- Literature regularly monitored to ensure that only the best are quoted
- Expertly assessed hazard and toxicity information compiled by a Specialist consultant
- Emphasis on growth areas in research, for example chiral intermediates
- Sharp focus on those starting materials, commercial chemicals and laboratory reagents of genuine use to practising chemists
- Key representation of every class of target molecule of current research
- Comprehensive coverage of CAS Registry numbers
- The print version has three Indexes - Name, Molecular Formula and CAS Registry Number
Free companion volume. All purchasers of the Main Printed Work receive a complimentary copy of the Organic Chemists Desk Reference which also be purchased separately.
Fast and flexible. The CD-ROM allows you to search quickly for the data you need, by using either a range of text fields or by structure or structural components Features include:
- Rapid transfer of results between text and substructure searches
- Each successful search provides chemical, physical and bibliographic data plus a high quality structure diagram
- Search results can be printed out or exported into your own documents
