Search using text or structure information for access to millions of chemical structures. ChemSpider is an excellent single resource site for structure-based chemistry information including patent information. ChemSpider is owned by the RSC and provided as a free resource to the community.
Property data on chemical compounds and all physical particles that have
been reported in the literature; reviewed by subject experts. Coverage: 2003-2004 to 2020-2021
Contains important information on data-related subjects such as chemical and
laboratory safety, and nomenclature
Available to students, faculty and staff at the University of Waterloo.
Depending on your method of access, you may be asked to authenticate as a

It provides completely identified inorganic crystal structures. It contains experimental inorganic structures, experimental metal-organic structures, and theoretical inorganic structures. . Coverage: 1913 to present
SDBS is an integrated spectral database system for organic compounds,which includes 6 different types of spectra under a directory of the compounds. The six (6) spectra are as follows, an electron impact Mass spectrum (EI-MS), a Fourier transform infrared spectrum (FT-IR), a 1H nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectrum, a 13C NMR spectrum, a laser Raman spectrum, and an electron spin resonance (ESR) spectrum.
Search chemicals by name, molecular formula, structure, and other identifiers. Find chemical and physical properties, biological activities, safety and toxicity information, patents, literature citations and more.
Provides chemical information including physical and chemical properties, reactions, and patents. Coverage: 1907 to present
Note: Access is restricted to current faculty, students and staff of the University. Account registration must be done using your Waterloo email address.
