A few comments. To check the pdf against scifinder as-is (for someone using only one monitor/laptop screen) requires a lot of alt-tab window switching. Copying individual CAS numbers from the PDF into the Scifinder window (which can accept a text file or multiple lines) is not very efficient.
For example, something simple like alanine will have one CAS# for the D form, another for L, another for "unspecified" and a fourth one for racemic. There would be another four CAS#s for the hydrochloride, four for the (1:1) sulfate, four for the (2:1)sulfate, etc. It is very important that we match the correct form CAS# to our Chemboxes!
According to CAS, his visionary view of CAS' potential "led to expansion, modernization, and the forging of international alliances with other information organizations." [15] CAS was an early leader in the use of computer technology to organize and disseminate information. [16] The CAS Chemical Registry System was introduced in 1965.
Some registration systems such as the CAS system make use of algorithms to generate unique hash codes to achieve the same objective. A key difference between a registration system and a simple chemical database is the ability to accurately represent that which is known, unknown, and partially known.
Many of these database companies use the same name for their file format as they do for their database (including Copac, CSA, ISI, Medline, Ovid, PubMed, and SciFinder). For the ability to retrieve citations from the particular databases (rather than the file format), please refer to the database connectivity table that is below this table.
Substructure search is used to retrieve from a database of chemicals those which contain the pattern of atoms and bonds specified by a user. It is implemented using a specialist type of query language and in real-world applications the search may be further constrained using logical operators on additional data held in the database.

Screenshot of the CAS Common Chemistry database with information about caffeine ().. A CAS Registry Number [1] (also referred to as CAS RN [2] or informally CAS Number) is a unique identification number, assigned by the Chemical Abstracts Service (CAS) in the US to every chemical substance described in the open scientific literature, in order to index the substance in the CAS Registry.
