Rapid growth in research on the use of natural products and related compounds for consumer goods and medical therapies is driving the need for scientific and patent information to guide research and protect innovations. For over 110 years, CAS has been providing access to research on chemistry and surrounding areas, including natural products, from patents, non-patents, and other document types. CAS’ intellectual indexing includes concepts, exemplified compounds, Markush structures, and reactions to enable the retrieval of information relating to natural products research. The sources can be searched in a variety of ways depending on the type of information which is required. This information is accessible on both STNext and SciFinder-n. A new CAS visualization tool, ChemScape, will be shown using a natural products example.
