The databases in the scheme above are searchable with the Reaction Browser (in-house system based on ISIS/Base), Isentris, and in DiscoveryGate. This is an interface geared to search for new transformation.

ChemInform is the best choice if you are looking for a reaction transformations, i.e. introduce a functional group at a highly sterically hindered position in a steroid.
