Science: Chemistry: New: Interoperability Between Elsevier's ScienceDirect and Reaxys Databases

From the Announcement:

...a new feature on ScienceDirect that improves the discoverability and usefulness of scientific chemistry content. As such, this added functionality enhances the value of the content for both authors and readers in chemistry.

Starting with two Elsevier chemistry journals, authors are invited to submit structure (MOL) files of their key compounds alongside their articles. Elsevier will use these structure files to add compound identifiers - International Chemical Identifier (InChI) keys* - to the article, increasing the discoverability of both the article and its key compounds on ScienceDirect and through search engines. In addition, the structure files are used to visually display all key compounds of the article in a single scrollable list, with additional functionality such as links to Reaxys, Elsevier’s web-based chemistry database, and Google.

[Snip]

The new feature will greatly enhance the utility of ScienceDirect articles and allow readers to easily go beyond the content of an article and to view chemical compounds in a much broader scope. Creating sub-structure searches in Reaxys directly from within an article has never been easier; a simple mouse-click can provide insights that would not have been discovered before.
