Release notes for August 2022

The Reaxys Team continue to strive to make improvements to your experience within the product. This release focuses on improving some Retrosynthesis functionalities:  

Enriched information about commercially available substances

• New Icon: A new rapid delivery shopping cart icon (A) will be displayed for substances which can be shipped in up to 5 days

  

• More Information: Upon hovering over the shopping cart icon, the tooltip will provide users with information about Shipping Time, Best Price (USD/g) and Largest Available PackageSize. Information will be displayed as per below category

 In cases where this information is not provided by the supplier, users will see “Please contact supplier”

This information will further help researchers in making make or buy decision for substances and selecting synthesis route(s) for a given molecule.

Enhancement to edit synthesis plans pop-up, for customization of published and/or predicted retrosynthesis

• Increased number of published and predicted reaction step options: When editing synthesis routes, users will be able to review all the single step published and/or predicted reactions (B), to find the best suited step to add to their route.

• Yield based sorting of published reaction step: To review example reactions effectively, published reaction step(s) will be sorted by decreasing yields (C), so users will be able to select reaction step(s) with highest yield first.

  

Easier transfer and copy of structure from retrosynthesis page 

Upon clicking the ‘3 dots’ icon next to the structure (D) users will see options to copy the structure for quick search in Reaxys or copy the structure as SMILES 

Improved accessibility of retrosynthesis pages

Retrosynthesis pages on Reaxys have been enhanced to conform with Web Content Accessibility Guidelines and can now be accessed via tabbing
