Engineering Subject Guide — Chemical, Physical & Property Databases

ChemSpider links together compound information across the web, providing free text and structure search access of millions of chemical structures. With an abundance of additional property information, tools to upload, curate and use the data, and integration to a multitude of other online services, ChemSpider is the richest single source of structure-based chemistry information. It is provided to the community by the Royal Society of Chemistry
