http://www.chemspider.comChemSpider is a chemistry search engine. It has been built with the intention
of aggregating and indexing chemical structures and their associated information
into a single searchable repository and make it available to everybody, at no
charge.
ChemSpider is a value-added offering of publicly available chemical structures
since many additional properties have been added to each of the chemical structures.
We intend ChemSpider to offer the fastest chemical structure searches available online
and delivered with the flexibility and usability necessary to encourage repeat usage.
A quick browse of the manual will help understand how ChemSpider can be of value.
What problems will ChemSpider solve?
There are tens if not hundreds of chemical structure databases and no single way to
search across them. There are databases of curated literature data, chemical vendor
catalogs, molecular properties, environmental data, toxicity data, analytical data
and on and on.
The only way to know whether a specific piece of information is available for a
chemical structure is to have simultaneous access to all of these databases. Since
many of these databases are for profit there is no way to easily determine the
availability of information within these commercial or even in the open access
databases. With ChemSpider the intention is to aggregate into a single database all
chemical structures available within open access and commercial databases and to
provide the necessary pointers from the ChemSpider search engine to the information
of interest. This service will allow users to either access the data immediately via
open access links or have the information necessary to continue their searches into
commercially available systems. The question “is there specific information about my
chemical” will be answered. Accessing the information may require a commercial
transaction with the appropriate provider.
ChemSpider released in March of 2007 with a number of publicly available databases as
well as data provided by our collaborators. Information about data sources will be
kept updated at our data sources page. At present the database contains information
from such diverse sources as a marine natural products database, from all commercially
available ACD/Labs databases, from the EPA’s DSSTox efforts and from a series of
chemical vendors. The data collections will continue to expand. If you have an interest
in uploading a data collection for viewing at ChemSpider please deposit your collection
online or contact us at info-at-chemspider-dot-com.
