Extensive Organic Chemistry Database

Click For Summary

Discussion Overview

The discussion revolves around the introduction and sharing of an Organic Chemistry Database created by a participant, Rui Monteiro. The database includes various features for searching chemical compounds and accessing related data, such as spectra and reactions. Participants also discuss other chemistry resources and databases.

Discussion Character

  • Exploratory, Resource sharing

Main Points Raised

  • Rui Monteiro introduces an Organic Chemistry Database that allows searches by name, formula, and reaction, and provides access to various spectra and reaction data.
  • Some participants express interest in additional chemistry resources and suggest creating a resource page if enough links are gathered.
  • A participant questions whether Rui's database is similar to the NIST database and mentions the possibility of access to SciFinder Scholar through Rui's school.
  • Another participant shares a link to a different chemistry database, ChemFinder, noting its large data set and free access.

Areas of Agreement / Disagreement

Participants generally agree on the value of sharing chemistry resources, but there is no consensus on the specific merits or comparisons of the databases mentioned.

Contextual Notes

Some assumptions about the availability and access to databases like SciFinder Scholar and the NIST database remain unverified. The discussion does not resolve the comparative effectiveness of the databases mentioned.

Who May Find This Useful

Students and professionals in chemistry, chemical engineering, and related fields may find the shared resources beneficial for research and study.

Hi there! This is my first post here, so a short introduction: my name is Rui Monteiro and i´m a Chemical Engineering student in Portugal, i´m 19. (btw, anyone from Portugal?)

So, what brings me here:
I came up with this Organic Chemistry Database (with a few inorganic compounds there too), which has almost everything. You can search by name, formula, reaction or whatever, plus you can choose what you want to see: IR, MS and UV/Vis. spectrum (missing RMN spectrum there), reactions, ion energetics...
I´ve been looking for this type of database for a long time, i hope you guys enjoy taking a look at all the features and eventually use it :)

Here is the link:

Organic Chemistry Database

I hope this wasn´t posted here before, if it was, i´m truly sorry then.


Rui.

(had to edit this, forgot to add the link lol)

Welcome Rui!

Thank you for posting that link! If you have got any other usefull links related to Chemistry, please post them. When there are enough we could create a Chemistry resource page
 
You came up with an NIST database, eh?

Perhaps your school in Portugal has purchased access to SciFinder Scholar?
 
You´re welcome Monique! :)

My faculty has access to SciFinder Scholar i think, but i found this link at yahoo.com.

another good site

I found a really good site with a large data base (and its free)
