From the main Reaxys start page, selecting "Literature" will bring up a Simple search form that will allow you to search by several common options, including Document Type, Authors, Journal Title, etc. Note that using the top option, "Search for", will search for the entered terms in titles, abstracts, and keywords.
Boolean operators should be used in all fields for multi-word searches. The list of recognized Boolean operators are:
Once you have entered all your search terms in varios fields, clicking OK will bring you to the Standard Search Query page, listing all the parameters of your search. Clicking SEARCH will actually run the search. Clicking RESET FORM will clear the search terms and return to the main Reaxys start page.
The list of citations in the result set are displayed by default in descending order of Publication Year, but can also be sorted by Journal Title, Author, and Document Type. Clicking on the "Title/Abstract" for any citation will display the full citation for a record. You can view the articles which cite a selected article, but there is no way to sort by that criterion at present.
The left side displays fields by which to Filter the result set, including Document Type, Author, etc. Clicking on a field will display "by Group" by default, which gives you a summary of how many documents fall into various categories under that field - i.e. Authors will display the list of authors in the results set, and you can Limit to (Include) or Exclude certain authors to form a new results set. Choosing "by Value" allows you to search within the results set for a term of your choosing in the selected field.
Citations can be saved to a local Reaxys account, if one is created.
