We are adding additional dictionaries to ChemMantis to support linking to external information. Wikipedia is a rich source of information for chemists and we have chosen to connect out to Wikipedia for details about named reactions. Now, when a person marks up a document and highlights a particular named reaction then the link to Wikipedia is used to populate the information balloon on the article. An example is shown on this article on ChemMantis and the balloon is shown below for the Knoevenagel condensation.
