Research Resources for Chemistry

Searches over 60 databases and over 2,200 scientific websites to provide users with access to more than 200 million pages of authoritative federal science information including research and development results.

The Online Collection includes approximately 1,900 memoirs, including those of famed naturalist Louis Agassiz; Joseph Henry, the first secretary of the Smithsonian Institution; Thomas Edison; Alexander Graham Bell; noted anthropologist Margaret Mead; and psychologist and philosopher John Dewey.

You can search for data on specific compounds in the Chemistry WebBook based on name, chemical formula, CAS registry number, molecular weight, chemical structure, or selected ion energetics and spectral properties.

The IUPAC International Chemical Identifier (InChITM) is a non-proprietary identifier for chemical substances that can be used in printed and electronic data sources thus enabling easier linking of diverse data compilations.

ChemSpider is a free chemical structure database providing fast text and structure search access to over 100 million structures from hundreds of data sources

Allows you to draw organic chemistry without having to master drawing.

The database contains over 351,000 chemical records, of which over 58,000 include chemical structures. ChemIDplus is searchable by Name/Synonym, CAS Registry Number, Molecular Formula, Classification Code, Locator Code, and Structure.

The Beilstein Journal of Organic Chemistry is an international, peer-reviewed, Open Access journal. The journal publishes high quality research and reviews in all areas of organic chemistry, including organic synthesis, organic reactions, natural product chemistry, structural investigations, supramolecular chemistry and chemical biology.

DOAJ is a community-curated online directory that indexes and provides access to high quality, open access, peer-reviewed journals.
