We’ll be placing this webinar online so you can listen to it again, at your own pace.
- Before we get started with Reaxys I would briefly like to put Reaxys into context with the other activities that go on at Elsevier. Elsevier serves 3 main and interlinked areas which may be of interest to you, Biology, Chemistry and Medicine. [first click] Reaxys is one of the products serving your needs in chemistry and we also have Embase, our tool for biomedical searching, Pharmapendium, giving searchable access to all FDA and EMA approval documentation and our new target finding and validation tool, Target Insights within the biology and medicine spheres. Furthermore, Reaxys is linked with SciVerseScienceDirect and SciVerse Scopus. Scopus is a multi-disciplinary, all-science abstract and citation database. [second click] This should help put Reaxys into context, and with that we can move to today’s Reaxys session… which Chris will be walking us through.
- During the session you can send us your questions using the chat function on the webinar control panel, and towards the end of the sessionwe will try and answer all of your questions. If we run out of time, we will send you a Q&A by email.Click on the red arrow for full screen. Your control panel will be hidden. Click again on the red arrow to see your control panel again.Chris, welcome, could you briefly introduce yourself and tell us all about reaxys?
- Thank you, Ani. And thank you everyone, for joining us.
- There’s an enormous amount of information in Reaxys, including data on catalysts, biomolecules, ceramics, glass, and alloys.You can access data relevant to electronics, magnetics, optics and nanoscience; zeolites and laser materials, as well as solid-state compounds, doped materials and minerals.
- During this session I would like to show a variety of ways to find inorganic and organometallic substances.It’s important to know that you can find what you want in a variety of ways, and sometimes it is best to perform more than one search. However, generally speaking inorganics should be searched by name or molecular formula and organometallics should be searched by structure.
- Here are a few of the questions that can be answered by using Reaxys.
- Structure…name…..MF……CAS number. What’s the best way to formulate the query? As mentioned previously, the name and molecular formula fields are usually the best way to find inorganics.
- But with certain common substances, using “Generate Structure from name” is a quick and easy way to find a substance. For example this search results in 224 substances, including salts, mixtures, and isotopes.
- CAS number, Name, and Molecular formula fields are also easily used. Here we see the “Form-based” query tab.
- If you know the CAS number, you can simply type it in, using hyphens.
- With the MF field, it is best to use alphabetical order and capital letters when appropriate(Though “C”, “H”, and some elements may be written in either upper case or lower case, other elements must be written with the first letter in upper case and the second letter in lower case. For example lower case “ni” will be interpreted as nitrogen and iodine, but when it is written as “Ni” it will be interpreted as nickel). However, in general this field is very forgiving ……and in this case, these formats also work. You can also use Ranges or a Wildcard when needed.
- With the Name field, it is not necessary to use capital letters, wildcards are allowed, and as with most fields, data operators are available.
- You can also select entries from the index. For example, clicking here opens the index where you can begin typing. Then click on the appropriate name, begin typing again, etc. Click the Transfer button. That was the Form-based tab. Now we’ll look at the Advanced tab.
- You can also do CAS number, Name, and MF querying from the Advanced tab.
- The Advanced Search feature enables you to drill into the database and offers hundreds of searchable fields and data operators for creative querying. Advanced Search queries use the following syntax:<fieldcode> <operator> <field value>We already mentioned the CAS number…….the “Preferred Registry Number” lists the single CAS Registry Number that has been selected as the best choice for a compound from the one or more CAS RNs that may be present in the database. We’ve already looked at the “Chemical Name” field, so let’s move on to the “Chemical Name Segment” field and compare them. The name you enter will appear in a segmented manor. For example, a “chemical name” search for phosgene retrieves 51 substances.When you add wildcards to it, you will retrieve 224 substances with names like this.There is a subtle difference when you use phosgene in the CNS field. Notice that the name does not have letters immediately before or after the word. Instead it is “segmented” by a hyphen or bracket or something similar.
- And now the MF fields……
- The Linear Structure Formula contains a linearrepresentation of the structure of a compound. Use the Linear StructureFormula field when searching for compounds: with a particular charge……and for doped compounds. Divided into fragments if: discrete polyatomic ions, molecules, orligands with unknown coordination exist. For example, if you are searching for zirconium silicate, use IDE.LSF='Zr(4+)*O4Si(4-)‘.For doped compounds, the formulas of the dopants are separated from the basiscompound by the designation “dot”. For example, if you are searching for tin-doped chromium, use IDE.LSF=crdotsn.
- Use the Fragment MolecularFormula field to retrieveall compounds containing a givenfragment, and the fragmentsthemselves. Let’s find substances containinghexacyanoferrate(III)fragments, using a wildcard.
- The MF Range field allows the searching of ranges with molecular formula. It is calculated during the search "on the fly". Search for substances containing Barium, copper, and a variable amount of oxygen.
- And there’s one more field to look at and that is the field for alloys.This field enables you to search for alloys, glasses and ceramic materials. The content of each constituent, an element or compound, is displayed in the results by a percentage value. The percentage may be shown as weight %, atom %, volume %, or unknown %.
- Using names and formulas is the best way to find inorganic substances, but with the organometallics and coordination substances, structures are your query of choice. For the most part, drawing these queries is no different than drawing any type of structure query…….the same query features are used.
- Use templates to avoid possible mistakes from drawing the whole structure. To find coordination complexes of crown ethers, like these, use the templates in MarvinSketch, draw bonds, and use “M” for any metal. Search with substitution on heteroatoms.
- Use Link Nodes to find copper diaza rings of varying size, like these. • Link Nodes are used to define repeating units. • The units can be rings or chains. • The Link Node is the atom that is selected. Anything within the brackets of the Link Node will be repeated. In MarvinSketch, rightclick the atom and select Edit Atom>Link Node and then select a number.
- To find cyclopentadienyl-palladium complexes use either the “Single/Double Bond” or the “Any bond” on the Cp ring to ensure that no substances are missed. For this example: 1. Click the cyclopentane template. 2. Use the Structure Selection tool to select the ring. 3. From the Object menu, select Bond>Type>Single or Double. 4. Use the Single Bond tool to add 5 bonds to the structure. 5. Use the Lasso Select tool to click and drag each bond to a common point. 6. Click the More button, select Pd, click Close. Click the common point of the structure. • Click the Transfer Query button in MarvinSketch. • Set the Query Options to Substructure on all atoms in Reaxys
- The ligand fields are divided into one-center ligands and multi-center ligands. A one-center ligand has at least one non-metal atom bound to one metal atom. A multi-center ligand has at least 1 non-metal atom bound to at least 2 metal atoms. • Multi-center ligands are indexed in Reaxys as both multi-center ligands and as individual one-center ligands. • These fields are powerful tools for finding ligand- metal complexes. • They are different from the other molecular formula fields in Reaxys because they use Ligand Codes, rather than element symbols.
- Each type of ligand can be searched using the fields: Base Formula, Formula, Count. Base formula – This is the abstract formula of the coordination center(s) and all ligand codes of a compound. The ordering of the formula is as follows: 1. all metal centers (ordered alphabetically) 2. the ligand codes are ordered in the following manner: A, CN, CNO, CNR, CNS, CO, CS, D, L, Q, X 3. within the same ligand types, they are ordered on ascending denticity and the frequency is not taken into consideration Formula – the ligand formula field contains the ligand codes which describe the elements (in groups) and the number of the atoms that are connected to the central metal atom(s). A ligandformula is given for all structured compounds or fragments which contain at least one metal atom and at least one coordinating ligand atom of the classes "L, A, D, Q, X" or a special ligand (for special ligands, the substituent R has no further bond to metal atoms). The denticity of a ligand is put in parentheses in front of the ligand code. If a ligand is described by >1 code, they are ordered alphabetically and the denticity of the code is put in parentheses in front of the code. Count – the frequency of a certain ligand within the compound is indexed in this field. Note: The ligand formula field(LIGO.FORM) describes only the denticity of the ligand not the connectivity to the metal center(s).
- Now that we’ve introduced you to this type of searching in Reaxys we would like to use the second half of the presentation to tell you more about the topic you prefer. Please let us know what you would like to learn.
