Established in 1965, the Cambridge Structural Database (CSD) is the a repository for small-molecule organic and metal-organic crystal 3D structures. Database records are automatically checked and manually curated by one of our expert in-house scientific editors. Every structure is enriched with chemical representations, as well as bibliographic, chemical and physical property information, adding further value to the raw structural data.
ChemSpider
ChemSpider is a freely available collection of compound data from across the web, which aggregates chemical structures and their associated information into a single searchable repository entry. These entries are supplemented with additional properties, related information and links back to original data sources.
