Databases of Physical Constants
- Databases available through the WSU
library Includes archive of all ACS journals and
now also includes Scifinder!
- CHEMnetBASE. Try the Properties of Organic Compounds database.
- http://www.emolecules.com/ Allows one to search for information by drawing the structure of the compound.
- ChemIDPlus. Detailed toxicity data for 139,000 common compounds.
- GoogleScholar is a great way to access the primary literature.
Spectroscopy Databases
- Database of Mass, IR, ESR, and NMR
Spectra: NIMCR's ISDBS for Organic Compounds
- Sigma-Aldrich is another place to look for NMR spectra: www.SigmaAldrich.com
- After you search the compound click
for information on the specific product, then under
"POPULAR DOCUMENTS" check to see if there is a link
for a FT-NMR pdf file.
- Chemical Shifts compilation:
http://www.chem.wisc.edu/areas/organic/index-chem.htm
- Five-Ash database of IR spectra. (Use the WSU Library Databases link to access this database.)
- Database of IR and Mass Spectra. NIST Chemistry WebBook
- NMR Spectrum Predictor** http://www.nmrdb.org/new_predictor/index.shtml?v=v2.82.3
**Beware putting too much credence in the NMR predictors. These only predict spectral data based on a relatively small set of known compounds' spectra. The results obtained cannot by any stretch be used as "true", "literature", or "theoretical" values. However, sometimes they can be used as a "guesstimate" of where your peaks should be.
