Chemistry Reference Resolver

The Chemistry Reference Resolution serves to quickly direct it to the website of an editor that contains the article you are looking for.

How does chem ref resolver work?

  1. Go to https://chemsearch.kovsky.net/.
  2. Write the reference.
  3. Chem Reference Resolver determines whether it is an appointment of the newspaper, a DOI, a chemical sigma-Aldrich or something more esoteric.
  4. According to the input, it redirects it to the editor’s website, directly to the document (or its closest approach).

Many formats are supported, including vaguely defined “lazy quotes”, such as “Perkin1 2002 2733”.

Additional notes about chem ref res

  • The chemsearch.kovsky.net website does not have PDF documents.
  • The search is case-insensitive.
  • The entire score is generally ignored.
  • For many journals, a volume number is not required − it is calculated automatically from the publication year. Check supported journals for more info.
  • There are several browser extensions available.
