The document discusses the evolution of chemistry databases, focusing on ChemSpider as a community-driven platform that curates and integrates chemical data from multiple sources. It highlights the importance of structure-centric searching and the challenges of quality verification, particularly in patent searches and chemical identification. The potential of crowdsourcing to enhance chemistry information online through innovative linking and sharing is emphasized.

Navigating the Complex Web of Chemistry Using ChemSpider
- 1. Navigating the Complex Web of Chemistry Using ChemSpider
- 2. Antony Williams vs Identifiers Old Passport ID Dad, Tony, others SSN Green Card License 5 email addresses ChemSpiderman (blog, Twitter account, Facebook, Friendfeed) OpenID … .
- 3. Aspirin vs Chemical Identifiers
- 4. Aspirin names and synonyms Text searches depend on correct association 335 suggested identifiers for Aspirin just on PubChem! Disambiguation dictionaries are necessary
- 6. … the premium database producers are using some automatic tools to prepare a ‘first draft’ of a database record, to be refined by eye . Coupled with the public internet as a distribution method of choice, it is becoming possible for the first time to create and distribute new structure based databases at much lower costs, or even free of charge.
- 9. The Final Search Strategy
- 10. All Those Names, One Structure
- 11. Content is King and Quality Costs Chemistry “content” is big business. Not everyone can afford it. Patent searching Structures and properties Drug databases Literature databases Chemical Abstracts Service (CAS), the “Gold Standard” in Chemistry related information 101 years of content $260 million revenue (2006) >50 million substances Proprietary platform
- 12. Searching Chemistry on the Internet How complete a result set will we get if we search for “chemicals” by name? Is there a better way to link chemistry databases? Linking by “names” is dangerous Chemists want structure and SUBstructure searching
- 14. Multiple Layers
- 15. InChIStrings Hash to InChIKeys
- 21. RDF Linking of Structures
- 22. PubChem
- 23. The Simplest Organic Molecule
- 24. Question Everything online: www.dhmo.org
- 25. The Structure-Based Data Cloud
- 26. Vancomycin
- 28. Vancomycin Who will curate? How would you clean such a large dataset?
- 30. Vancomycin
- 31. Vancomycin Search Molecular SKELETON Search Full Molecule
- 32. Full Skeleton Search: 104 Hits
- 33. Full Molecule Search: 4 Hits
- 34. What is ChemSpider? ChemSpider is: Building a Structure Centric Community for Chemists 22.2 million compounds, >200 data sources A deposition and curation platform A publishing platform for the community Grows daily – more depositions, more links, more data sources
- 35. For Chemical Compounds Vendor sites – Aldrich, Alfa Aesar, TCI and 100s of others Government databases – PubChem, DSSTox, FDA databases, ChemIDPlus,… Biological Databases – Protein Database, Stitch, KEGG, ChEBI,… Analytical databases –NMRShiftDB,…
- 36. How Was ChemSpider Built? ChemSpider was a “hobby project” Housed in a basement and running off three servers – one bought, two built May 2009
- 37. 3 servers – 2 homebuilt .NET architecture SQL server Homebuilt structure/substructure Commercial components Open Source Components OpenBabel, Jmol, JSpecView, NCBI Toolkit, InChI Libraries
- 42. Linked across the internet
- 43. Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes
- 44. Links to Patents based on structure
- 46. Answering Questions for Chemists Questions a chemist might ask… What is the melting point of n-butanol? What is the chemical structure of Xanax? Chemically, what is phenolphthalein? What are the stereocenters of cholesterol? Where can I find publications about xylene? What are the different trade names for Ketoconazole? What is the NMR spectrum of Aspirin? What are the safety handling issues for Thymol Blue?
- 47. Complex Data and Information
- 48. Remember – QUALITY ISSUES
- 50. Incorrect Structures
- 51. Does one stereocenter matter? Distaval, Talimol, Nibrol, Sedimide, Quietoplex, Contergan, Neurosedyn, and Softenon
- 53. We Need Recognition and Rewards
- 54. Master Curators, Curators, Depositors
- 55. Collaborating with Wikipedia Long term project to curate chemical compounds Robotically linking ChemSpider to Wikipedia at present Will layer on InChI Strings and InChIKeys shortly and make Wikipedia structure searchable
- 56. Blogs need InChIs too!
- 57. Blogs need InChIs too!
- 58. Use Intelligent Structures : ChemSpider Embed Web Service
- 60. Semantic Mark-up for Chemistry Semantic mark-up for chemistry is here RSC project prospect Nature publishing group compound linking ChemMantis
- 61. Nature Chemistry Compound Pages
- 62. Project Prospect
- 63. ChemMantis
- 65. Species – linked to Wikipedia
- 66. Semantic Linking of Structures What would you want to link off a structure? Chemical suppliers Other publications Analytical Data Related Reactions Wikipedia Patents “ Everything”
- 68. InChI Resolver to DOIs Structure Search the Web
- 70. Conclusions Internet resources provide a collaborative community for chemistry Crowdsourcing to expand, curate and integrate to the benefit of chemists Searching the web for chemistry is arriving InChIs are enabling chemistry on the internet Question Quality!
