Compound Results

View the compounds that matched your structure search query. At the top of the page appears the search statement that retrieved the results, including the selected reactant option.

The actual number of compounds found by the search appears at the top of the page. If, however, your hit count is greater than 500, then only 500 compounds are available for viewing. You can use the navigation buttons to view compound records. For example:

Results: 650 (500 shown)

Each compound is accompanied by two links: a link to the Compound Details page and a link to the Full Record page.

If you want to print a compound record from this page, select the compound(s), and then click the Print button.

If your search also retrieved reactions, then click Go to Reaction Results button to view the reaction records.

Save to SD File

You can save compound records to an SD (structure-data file) file from the Compound Results page. An SD file contains the compound's connection table, along with associated data for one or more compounds.

You can open an SD file in WordPad or you can use any chemical software tool to import the file.
