Guide: Chemistry| American Chemical Society http://chemistry.org The ACS is the principal chemistry society in the United States and one of the most important in the world. The website provides access to extensive sources of chemical information, especially ACS publications. |
| Chemical Science and Technology Laboratory (CSTL) http://www.cstl.nist.gov/ CSTL of the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) develops standards and otherwise safeguards methods used by industry and academia in the use of chemicals and chemical information. The website includes significant collections of chemical data developed as part of CSTL’s work. |
| Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) http://www.epa.gov/ The EPA as part of its mandate to protect the environment makes extensive use of chemical information as well as conducting significant research to create such information. |
| International Union of Pure and Applied Chemistry http://www.iupac.org The Union is one of the most important organizations supporting chemical research. It is especially involved in the naming of chemicals, chemical processes, and related matters. The site has information on the organization's current activities and some of its documentation, including reports and supporting journal articles. |
| Scholarly Societies Project: Chemistry http://www.lib.uwaterloo.ca/society/chemistry_soc.html This is a list of scholarly societies involved in chemistry research and related topics. It is maintained at the University of Waterloo Library. |
Chemistry Publication Databases
The following websites provide access to collections of journal articles, technical reports, and other publications. All include a large number of chemistry related materials.
| Google Scholar http://scholar.google.com/ This is a database of journal articles, theses, technical reports, and other publications with information contributed by a wide range of publishers, universities, government organizations, and other sources. |
| OAIster http://www.oaister.org/ This database is collection of open access materials in all academic disciplines. Some have been published in peer reviewed publications. Included are articles, technical reports, data sets, and other materials. |
| Scirus http://www.scirus.com/ The Scirus search engine indexes scientific websites only. It includes links to a wide variety of information sources from individual scientists, universities, scientific publishers, governmental organizations, and other sources. |
Chemical Information Sites
The following websites provide access to collections of chemical data on various substances.
| Chemfinder.com http://chemfinder.cambridgesoft.com/ ChemFinder is a free version of ChemINDEX. It contains basic identification information for chemical compounds and some of their physical data. It also includes links to other websites with information on the compound. |
| MERLOT Chemistry Portal http://chemistry.merlot.org/ MERLOT is a website that collects online tutorials, tests, class presentations, and other types of educational material. In the Chemistry Portal materials are arranged by both type of materials and chemistry field. |
| NIST Chemistry WebBook http://webbook.nist.gov/chemistry/ This database contains basic information about a large number of chemicals. It includes basic identification information including names, CAS numbers, formulas, reaction information, and some physical properties. This database was created by the National Institute of Science and Technology of the U.S. Commerce Department. |
| NMRShiftDB http://www.nmrshiftdb.org/ This is a database of nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectra, structures, and associated records for organic compounds. The information has been contributed by scientists at various research organizations around the world and is maintained by the Max Planck Institute of Chemical Ecology. The database is searchable by spectra information, structure, molecular weight, and keywords. It is capable of predicting spectra information for unknown substances based on their carbon content. |
| PubChem http://pubchem.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/ This is a database of information on organic chemicals. It contains structural information, some property data, and information on biological activity. It contains connections to information found in other National Center for Biotechnology Information and National Library of Medicine databases including PubMed, Entrez, and others. |
| Spectral Database for Organic Compounds, SDBS http://riodb01.ibase.aist.go.jp/sdbs/cgi-bin/cre_index.cgi?lang=eng The SDBS is a collection of spectral data for organic compounds. Types of spectra include EI mass, NMR (various types), FT-IR, laser-Raman, and ESR. This database is maintained by the Japanese National Institute of Advanced Industrial Science and Technology. |
