Exploring Functional Group Transformations on CASREACT

CAS analyzed all single step reactions on the CASREACT reaction database in terms of functional group transformations. This involved defining over 1300 functional groups and a set of rules to determine exactly which functional groups participate in a particular reaction. This paper describes the analysis process and presents some statistics and charts showing the frequency distribution of functional groups and their transformations over the full database.
