Reaxys Xcelerate
by Wendy Warr 31 Jan '12

31 Jan '12

I remember years ago we used to talk about the (ACS/CAS) "academic discount", i.e., the industrial subsidy. I doubt that industry will care about the Elsevier boycott. Anyway, FWIW, here is evidence of Elsevier investing in our future :) (as they say in France when they dig up your highway). http://www.elsevier.com/wps/find/authored_newsitem.cws_home/companynews05_0… Elsevier announced the launch of Reaxys Xcelerate(tm), a premium version of Reaxys(r) developed in close consultation with research intensive organizations. Reaxys Xcelerate(tm) further extends the capabilities of Reaxys(r) . Reaxys Xcelerate(tm) has been designed to streamline research intensive chemistry workflows for: * Synthetic chemists who need to view and analyze numerous potential retrosynthetic pathways can get immediate, automated, multiple synthetic plans, complete with access to the necessary background data, ensuring they can make informed decisions about the most effective routes to take to the lab. * Chemistry researchers who need to compare and contrast multiple datasets can utilize Reaxys Xcelerate's intelligent results visualization, reducing data analysis complexity. Context sensitive graphical overviews and the ability to cluster results for maximum relevance enables immediate insights, which speeds up the analysis process. * Global teams and diverse research groups who need to share information across labs and geographies can use enhanced information exchange capabilities. Researchers can pinpoint the exact area of interest, annotate with further insights or instructions and share instantly with colleagues for more effective teamwork. Reaxys (r) and Reaxys Xcelerate(tm) follow the same agile development process, ensuring that the two versions continue to deliver the relevant content and insights needed by research chemists. To find out more about Reaxys Xcelerate(tm), including the opportunity to experience the product, visit [cid:image001.gif@01CCE032.0303A960] www.reaxys.com/info/xcelerate<http://www.reaxys.com/info/xcelerate>.
