How to... Analyze Reaction Answer Sets

Analyze is one of the many SciFinder tools that allow you to explore, evaluate, and review your reaction answer sets. Analyzing helps you get different views of your answer set based on, for example, author or organization, catalyst or solvent, or other reaction characteristics.


1.

When reactions are displayed in your main SciFinder window, click the Analyze/Refine button. Then click Analyze.


2.

Select an option for analyzing your answer set. Click OK.

Tips
  • You may analyze (and/or refine) by one or more of the options sequentially.

    Select this option... To categorize reactions on the basis of...
    Catalyst Catalysts used in the reactions.
    Solvent

    Solvents used in the reactions.

    Number of Steps Number of steps in the reactions.
    Product Yield Percent yields of the reactions.
    Author Authors reporting the reactions.
    Company / Organization Companies or Organizations reporting the reactions.
    Document Type Type of document in which the reactions were reported.
    Journal Name Journals in which ther reactions were published.
    Language Languages in which the reactions were reported.
    Publication Year Years in which the reactions were published.

For example, select Catalyst to obtain a breakdown of catalysts used in the reactions. Select one or more catalysts to retrieve only reactions that use the catalyst(s). Click OK.


2.

Review your answers.
