I've come to face with a small issue. Using Biber+Biblatex, I haven't been able to print out the DOI in the bibliography! I've used biblatex-chem and tried both chem-angew and chem-acs. From what I gathered from the biblatex-chem examples, they should automagically print out the DOI. I even thought that perhaps since the .bib file is in BibTeX style it could interfere, so I tried to convert BibTeX to BibLaTeX, to no avail.

Any ideas on the why and how to overcome it?

This is reference \cite{A} and this is reference \cite{B}. They are different from \cite{C}. Can it be that cleaning up reference \cite{A} into biblatex style makes the difference? We shall see in reference \cite{D}

    A comment in the example bib biblatex-chem.bib says (entry @Article{Sofield2004) "An article where the volume and page details have deliberately been omitted, to force the use of the \textsc{doi}". So it looks as if the style actively suppress the doi, if volume is there.

    @UlrikeFischer It suppresses the DOI if pages is there. I think there are several styles that work like this, the idea being that an entry with pages was published in a journal with volume, number, pages so that it can be identified unqieuely. But doi=true (as in your answer) turns that behaviour off.

You can use 

\ExecuteBibliographyOptions
  {
    doi          = true , 
  }

to force the printing of the doi.
