Hieme Chemistry and CambridgeSoft announce support for the Science of Synthesis drawing style requirements in ChemDraw 8.0
Authors will be able to use the predefined settings (style sheet) for Science of Synthesis when preparing new documents.
This will save authors time and help in the consistent and accurate presentation of schemes throughout their contributions.
Science of Synthesis is an entirely new addition, in English, of the classic Houben-Weyl Methods of Organic Chemistry, which has been the first point of reference for organic and organometallic synthetic strategies since 1909 and it is now available in print and electronic formats.
Science of Synthesis is a quality reference work developed by a highly esteemed editorial board to provide a comprehensive and critical selection of reliable organic and organometallic synthetic methods.
Methods from journals, book and patent literature from the early 1800's are selected by leading chemists in the field.
The information is organized in an intuitive, hierarchical system based on the compound or functional group to be synthesized, thereby enabling chemists to readily find the information they need.
Thieme is publishing Science of Synthesis between 2000 and 2008 in 48 volumes.
"The inclusion of the Science of Synthesis style in ChemDraw will benefit our authors and editorial team greatly", said Fiona Shortt de Hernandez, managing editor of Science of Synthesis.
"We are pleased to add one of the leading companies in the field of chemical information to our network of cooperation partners".
ChemDraw is the industry leader of chemical drawing programs.
ChemDraw includes stereochemistry recognition and display, multi-page documents, ChemNMR with spectral display, and Name=Struct for instant structure generation.
"CambridgeSoft is pleased to partner with Thieme Chemistry to extend ChemDraw's support for use in publishing scientific information", said Michael Tomasic, chairman and CEO of CambridgeSoft.
