SciFinder is a discovery tool provided by Chemical Abstracts Service (CAS) for chemical structure & reaction and forward cited-reference searches. Searches are performed across select Chemical Abstracts databases and Medline, which covers many disciplines such as biomedical sciences, chemistry, engineering, materials science, and agricultural science. (Coverage Details)

Current UM faculty, students, and staff may access the databases through the SciFinder web version.

Need a quick check? You may access limited features of SciFinder using your smartphone. See here for details. You may login with your SciFinder account. There is no IP address restriction and your access through smartphone does not occupy our concurrent seats.

Note: Access through iPad will be directed to the web version of SciFinder (i.e. there will be IP address restriction and seats limit for iPad. )

• To convert your client saved .sfr files to .akx files using the new SciFinder file conversion tool
  

• SciFinder supports certain operating systems, browsers, and requires Java plug-in and certain version of Java. If the structure editor does not act normally, check your computer to see if meets requirements on this page http://cas.org/support/scifi/sysreqs.html
  

According to our subscription to SciFinder, we have limited seats to use SciFinder, which means the number of concurrent session is limited. If you experience difficulties with accessing the database due to too many concurrent sessions, please try again at another time. But if you encounters more difficulties than usual, please contact the Chemistry Librarian Ye Li at liye@umich.edu.
