Boolean operators	AND, OR or NOT	Combine words in a query.

Truncation	? or *	Use as left and right truncation for any number of characters. Especially left truncation will slow down the search!
	#	Right truncation for one or zero characters. E.g. vapor# matches vapor and vapors.
	!	Exactly one character within or at the end of a term. E.g. sulf!!yl matches sulfenyl and sulfoxyl

List catenations	L1, L2...	Every search result is a list. Open Your search history by clicking on the small triangle left of "search history" in an serach tab. Most likely there will be more than one list, marked as 'L1', 'L2' ... . You can not combine lists with further search terms!

Basic proximity search	"..."	Use quotations ("") to search for a special string. E.g. "organic chemistry" searches for this particular phrase! A query organic chemistry searches for documents just containing both words.
