[chemweb] Substructure searchable chemistry journals

Fri May 13 11:58:57 BST 2005

Is the Journal of Heterocyclic Chemistry really the first
substructurally searchable chemistry journal (see below)?

Incidentally, I notice a letter in this week's issue of C&EN pointing
out that Organic Syntheses, not Beilstein JOC, is the first major Open
Access journal in its field.

1. Carbohydrate Synthesis
As carbohydrates have numerous functions in living organisms, the
synthesis of oligosaccharides or glycocunjugates for screening is
receiving a growing interest. The access to this value-added directory
is free during the month May for the readers of this newsletter.
