About Beilstein via DiscoveryGate
| Subject | The Beilstein database contains information on
approximately 7 million organic substances. Records in the
database include structures, data on chemical and physical
properties such as melting point, boiling point and spectral
identification, and over 5 million reactions, as well as
references to the chemical literature published from 1779 to
date.

Due to licensing restrictions, you will find DiscoveryGate listed on the Start menu of some library workstations: those in the Chemistry Library, and some near the Olin Help Desk on Level 1.
