Provides reference books, data sets, and information in the fields of chemistry, the life sciences, and materials science and engineering. Full text is available.

Includes more than 6,000 entries that fully define the language of chemistry. This dictionary covers all disciplines, including organic and inorganic chemistry, physical chemistry, analytical chemistry, biochemistry, and chemical engineering. Entries include hundreds of synonyms, acronyms, and abbreviations and identify the fields in which a term is used.

The Merck Index is a database of chemicals, drugs and biologicals with over 11,000 monographs on single substances or groups of related compounds. It includes an appendix with monographs on organic named reactions and covers a wide range of subject areas, including human and veterinary drugs, flavours and fragrances, herbal medicines, laboratory reagents, and much more.

Provides access to PubMed, human genome resources, entrez databases, and nucleotide databases, as well as tools for data mining and sequence analysis.

Focuses on 300 of the most important and useful synthetic reaction types. Individual examples of each reaction type are cataloged and discussions include the scope, selectivity, practicality, and reproducibility of a given reaction.

Reference work for toxicological information on a large number of industrial chemicals that pose potential health hazards. Contents include CAS numbers, physical and chemical properties, exposure limits, and biological tolerance values for occupational exposures.

A database of 30,000 of the most commonly sought organic compounds, featuring physical data, spectral data, and structures.

Contains information on nearly 30,000 organic compounds including structure, physical data, and some spectral data. Users can identify unknown compounds or locate additional data and references for a known compound. Each entry includes trade names, properties, constituent monomers, commercial applications, manufacturing processes, and references.

Provides access to the U.S. National Institutes of Health (NIH) digital archive of biomedical and life sciences journal literature. Some full text is available.
