ACD/Labs, an informatics company that develops and commercialises solutions in support of R&D, has announced a continued collaboration with ChemSpider, a leading chemical database owned by the Royal Society of Chemistry, to continue furnishing predicted physicochemical properties and chemical nomenclature to the ever-expanding platform. For over ten years, scientists have accessed this publically-available free resource to gather information on chemical compounds in preparation of research or experimentation.
As the industry standard for physicochemical prediction software, ACD/Labs was chosen to generate property information including logP, logD (at various pHs), Lipinski rule-of-5 values, and boiling point, and to provide Name-to-structure (and vice-versa) capabilities. The renewal of the partnership further reflects the success of the platform and its continued importance as one of the most robust online chemical structure databases for the scientific community. As the platform advances, ChemSpider will continue to use ACD/Labs algorithms to provide quality insights to researchers.
While ChemSpider has doubled the size of its database, it has remained committed to maintaining high quality data from selective sources. As the platform continues to grow, ChemSpider will use ACD/Labs Percepta prediction algorithms and ACD/Name tools in a batch-wise fashion to populate the database and enhance publicly available chemical intelligence.
