Chemspider General Over 500 Chemistry data sources

RSC databook website General Search the databases for a wide range of properties of elements and compounds (and other data such
as infra-red spectroscopy) and export this data into other packages

Chemexper General This database contains chemicals with their physical characteristics. Everybody can submit chemical
information and retrieve information with a Web browser

IUPAC NIST solubility General Compare the solubility of multiple compounds


database

Chemsynthesis General ChemSynthesis is a freely accessible database of chemicals. This website contains substances with
their synthesis references and physical properties such as melting point, boiling point and density.
There are currently more than 40,000 compounds and more than 45,000 synthesis references in the
database

Matweb General MatWeb's searchable database of material properties includes data sheets of thermoplastic and
thermoset polymers such as ABS, nylon, polycarbonate, polyester, polyethylene and polypropylene;
metals such as aluminum, cobalt, copper, lead, magnesium, nickel, steel, superalloys, titanium and zinc
alloys; ceramics; plus semiconductors, fibers, and other engineering materials.

PubChem General The granddaddy of all free chemistry databases. Search over 8 million compounds by a variety of
criteria. Although some PubChem records are linked into the primary literature through MeSH, most are
not. But this doesn't seem to be PubChem's true calling. Instead, PubChem may well evolve into the
world's largest online collection of molecular data sheets. Increasingly, the other databases in this list
are cross-referencing their entries into PubChem.

Chemspider synthetic Organic ChemSpider SyntheticPages is a freely available interactive database of synthetic chemistry. We
publish practical and reliable organic, organometallic and inorganic chemical synthesis, reactions and
procedures deposited by synthetic chemists. Synthetic methods on the site are updated continuously by
chemists working in academic and industrial research laboratories

MassBank M.A.C The first public repository of mass spectral data for sharing them among scientific research community.
MassBank data are useful for the chemical identification and structure elucidation of chemical
compounds detected by mass spectrometry

Spectral database for M.A.C This includes the 1H NMR, IR and Mass Spectra of thousands of compounds and also includes spectra
organic compounds from spectroscopic techniques not on the IB syllabus such as ESR, 13C NMR and Raman.

NMRshift M.A.C An NMR database (web database) for organic structures and their nuclear magnetic resonance (nmr)
spectra. It allows for spectrum prediction (13C, 1H and other nuclei) as well as for searching spectra,
structures and other properties. Last not least, it features peer-reviewed submission of datasets by its
users

Computational Chemistry M.A.C Experimental and computational thermochemical data for a selected set of 1420 gas-phase atoms and
molecules. Tools for comparing experimental and computational ideal-gas thermochemical properties

Spectral database for M.A.C SDBS is an integrated spectral database system for organic compounds,which includes 6 different
organic compounds types of spectra under a directory of the compounds

Pherobase M.A.C Currently, there are over 30000 entries, around 8000 molecules, and over 100000 static php pages that
make it the world's largest database of behaviour modifying chemicals. In addition, mass spectral, NMR,
synthesis data for more than 2500 compounds are included.

Nist Chemistry Workbook Energetics This site provides thermochemical, thermophysical, and ion energetics data compiled by NIST under
the Standard Reference Data Program.

NIST chemical kinetics Kinetics A compilation of kinetics data on gas-phase reactions

Gapminder Environmental Real world data eg CO2 per capita. Potentially a good environmental data source.

Drugbank Medicinal A unique bioinformatics and cheminformatics resource that combines detailed drug (i.e. chemical,
pharmacological and pharmaceutical) data with comprehensive drug target (i.e. sequence, structure,
and pathway) information. The database contains 6707 drug entries including 1436 FDA-approved
small molecule drugs, 134 FDA-approved biotech (protein/peptide) drugs, 83 nutraceuticals and 5086
experimental drugs.

Chembank Medicinal Includes freely available data derived from small molecules and small-molecule screens, and resources
for studying the data so that biological and medical insights can be gained. ChemBank is intended to
guide chemists synthesizing novel compounds or libraries, to assist biologists searching for small
molecules that perturb specific biological pathways, and to catalyze the process by which drug hunters
discover new and effective medicines

SIDER Medicinal SIDER contains information on marketed medicines and their recorded adverse drug reactions. The
information is extracted from public documents and package inserts. The available information include
side effect frequency, drug and side effect classifications as well as links to further information, for
example drug–target relations.

ChemMine Medicinal ChemMine is a compound mining database that facilitates drug and agrochemical discovery and
chemical genomics screens.

BindingDB Biochemistry BindingDB is a public, web-accessible database of measured binding affinities, focusing chiefly on the
interactions of protein considered to be drug-targets with small, drug-like molecules. BindingDB
contains 781,982 binding data, for 6,448 protein targets and 342,414 small molecules.

PDBBind Biochemistry The PDBbind database is designed to provide a collection of experimentally measured binding affinity
data (Kd, Ki, and IC50) exclusively for the protein-ligand complexes available in the Protein Data Bank
(PDB). All of the binding affinity data compiled in this database are cited from original references

AffinDB Biochemistry affinity data for protein-ligand complexes of the PDB. Its purpose is to provide direct and free access to
the experimental affinity of a given complex structure. As of Thursday, October 13th, 2011, AffinDB
contains 748 affinity values covering 474 different PDB complexes."

National Institute of allergy Biochemistry There are three main search portals for the database: the chemical portal allows searches by
& infectious diseases compound structure or chemical characteristics, the biological portal performs searches based on
compound activity against a specific pathogen or enzyme, and the literature portal supports searches
based on publication information, such as author name or journal.

Brenda Biochemistry BRENDA is the main collection of enzyme functional data available to the scientific community. ... The
data collection is being developed into a metabolic network information system with links to Enzyme
expression and regulation information

RRuf Geology Creating a complete set of high quality spectral data from well characterized minerals and is developing
the technology to share this information with the world. Our collected data provides a standard for
mineralogists, geoscientists, gemologists and the general public for the identification of minerals both on
earth and for planetary exploration.

Polyinfo Polymers Information on polymers including properties, chemical structures, IUPAC names, processing methods
of measured samples, measurement conditions, used monomers and polymerization methods are
stored in a object database. About 100 types of properties including thermal, electrical and mechanical
properties are covered.
