MOLBASE search accommodates searching in both Chinese and English. Users can search using CAS number,structure, functional groups and other advanced professional search modes. 

1. Text Search

Valid Data Formats

For example, a MOLBASE search might be:

Chinese name

莫西沙星

English name

Moxifloxacin

English Nickname

4-dihydroquinoline-3-carboxylic acid

CAS RN

151096-09-02

Using of wildcard *

The wildcard character* tells the search engine that any text can occur in that position. Therefore a wildcard search   may find more results.

For example

When searching for “Moxifloxacin*” will show results that are related such as:

MOXIFLOXACIN HYDROCHLORIDE

MOXIFLOXACIN ACYL SULFATE

MOXIFLOXACIN HYDROCHLORIDE-13CD3

2. Structural Search

MOLBASE uses Chemwrite, which is the most advanced chemical molecular structure search mode in the world.The     ChemWriter molecule editor runs directly in your web browser,and is free for anyone to use.

(a) Exact Structure Search

Finds only the exact chemical compound you have drawn, with no substituent at any position. Isotopicvarients and     stereoisomers are also found.

(b)  Substructure Search

Finds all the compounds that contain the substructure which is the scaffold or partial structure you have drawn. Notes: searches for common substructures may return too many results (i.e. hundreds of thousands). In that case, you may   want to make your structure more specific. To find out more about the MOLBASE search engine, please click here, you      can read the details about the MOLBASE search engine principle, then use the advanced search to do the searching or to    filter the search results.

(c) Chiral products

MOLBASE also caters for chiral compounds. You can select either the right-handed or the left-handed compound in     the search result. hand compound

3.The Functional group Search

Click the functional group search column on the top, and then select the chemical functional groups you needed. 

Next, click on the search button on the bottom for the results. 

You can filter the list of results further by specifying your search criteria.
