Filter Reaction Source References by Organization

This feature provides users a direct path to narrowing reaction result source references by organization. This allows users to easily identify who has published the reactions of interest, without having to cross over to references for refinement.

To view the Organization filter option, execute a reaction query and scroll to/expand the Source Reference section of the Filter by panel.

Group Reactions by Transformation

This highly requested feature provides users a new option to group reaction results for a streamlined review.

To group reactions by transformation, first execute a reaction query, and then select Group > By Transformation on the results page. For example, a reaction search for a product of vanillin shows the following transformation groups.

Clicking View Related Reactions opens a new result set containing only those reactions matching the desired transformation.

If the user downloads the reaction result set, the resulting file name indicates the results are grouped by transformation.

Uncategorized single-step reactions and multi-step reactions display at the end of the result list.

Note: The selected Group option is maintained with the next query, when saving the results, and/or when sharing the results.

Enable Fragments in R-groups in CAS Draw

Users can now craft complex search queries in CAS Draw by defining fragments within R-groups; in other words, by defining moieties. This allows searching for structures with defined permutations.

To perform a structure search with fragments defined in R-groups, draw a structure in CAS Draw including fragment moieties. Using the Fn shortcut, assign the fragments.
