Comparison of DiscoveryGate® and SciFinder®

Detailed comparison between SciFinder® from CAS and DiscoveryGate® from Elsevier MDL

This white paper provides a detailed comparison between SciFinder® from CAS and DiscoveryGate® from Elsevier MDL. Both provide bibliographic, molecule and reaction and textual descriptive information.
  • For access to the chemical literature, SciFinder is the place to start.

  • For access to highly detailed bioactivity, sourcing, synthesis, drug safety and pharmacology data profiles, DiscoveryGate is the place to start.
SciFinder enables users to comprehensively search journal abstracts to find all new reported molecule structures, but offers few experimentally determined data values. DiscoveryGate offers the best solution to examine reaction, sourcing and experimental data from representative articles, patents and other sources. With over 434 million experimental data values, DiscoveryGate excels at delivering more structure, bioactivity, synthesis and sourcing information to help scientists gain new insights into structure-activity relationships, discover new synthetic routes to novel compounds and save time in acquiring commercially accessible starting materials.
