ChemSpider: An Online Chemical Information Resource

Open access
Pence, Harry E., Williams, Antony·2010·Journal of Chemical Education

Abstract

ChemSpider is a free, online chemical database offering access to physical and chemical properties, molecular structure, spectral data, synthetic methods, safety information, and nomenclature for almost 25 million unique chemical compounds sourced and linked to almost 400 separate data sources on the Web. ChemSpider is quickly becoming the primary chemistry Internet portal and it can be very useful for both chemical teaching and research.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
