There is an increasing availability of free and open access resources for scientists to use on the internet. Coupled with the increasing availability of Open Source software tools we are in the middle of a revolution in data availability and tools to manipulate these data. ChemSpider is a free access website for chemists built with the intention of providing a structure centric community for chemists. As an aggregator of chemistry related information from many sources, at present over 21.5 million unique chemical entities from over 200 separate data sources, ChemSpider has taken on the task of both robotically and manually curating publicly available data sources. This presentation will provide an overview of the ChemSpider platform and how it is fast becoming the centralized hub for resourcing information about chemical entities.

ChemSpider is a free access website for chemists built with the vision of providing a structure centric community for chemists. Vision is great…execution is better. ChemSpider is now one of the internet’s primary portals for chemistry offering access to over 23 million unique chemical structures from over 200 data sources and expanding daily. Even though there are tens if not hundreds of chemical structure databases such as literature data, chemical vendor catalogs, molecular properties, environmental data, toxicity data, analytical data etc. there has been no single way to search across them. Despite the fact that there are a large number of databases containing chemical compounds and data available online their inherent quality, accuracy and completeness remains lacking in many regards. With ChemSpider we have provided a platform whereby the chemistry community could contribute to cleaning up the data, improving the quality of data online and expanding the information available to include data such as reaction syntheses, analytical data, experimental properties and linking to other valuable resources.
This presentation will provide an overview of ChemSpider and its value to chemists as a search tool, as a public repository of information and how it can become one of the primary foundations of internet-based chemistry. I will also discuss the vision for ChemSpider and some of the exciting goals we are setting for the system moving forward.Why Chemistry and the Web Will Benefit from a ChemSpider

The internet now offers access to a myriad of online resources that can be of value to chemists working in the Life Sciences. While finding information online is, in many cases, a simple search away, the accuracy and validity of the associated data and information should be questioned. As more databases and resources are introduced online, and commonly not integrated to other resources, a scientist must perform multiple searches and then undertake the task of meshing and merging data. ChemSpider is a freely accessible online database that has taken on the challenge of meshing together distributed resources across the internet to provide a structure-based hub. It is a crowdsourcing environment hosting over 26 million unique compounds linked out to over 400 data sources. With well defined programming interfaces for integration ChemSpider has been integrated to many commercial and open software packages and is presently serving as the chemistry foundation for the IMI Open PHACTS project.

High resolution mass spectrometry (HRMS) and non-targeted analysis (NTA) are of increasing interest in chemical forensics for the identification of emerging contaminants and chemical signatures of interest. At the US Environmental Protection Agency, our research using HRMS for non-targeted and suspect screening analyses utilizes databases and cheminformatics approaches that are applicable to chemical forensics. The CompTox Chemicals Dashboard is an open chemistry resource and web-based application containing data for ~900,000 substances. Basic functionality for searching through the data is provided through identifier searches, such as systematic name, trade names and CAS Registry Numbers. Advanced Search capabilities supporting mass spectrometry include mass and formula-based searches, combined substructure-mass searches and searching experimental mass spectral data against predicted fragmentation spectra. A specific type of data mapping in the underpinning database, using “MS-Ready” structures, has proven to be a valuable approach for structure identification that links structures that can be identified via HRMS with related substances in the form of salts, and other multi-component mixtures that are available in commerce. These MS-Ready structures have been used as an input set for computational MS-fragmentation to provide a database against which to search experimental data for spectral matching. This presentation will provide an overview of how the CompTox Chemicals Dashboard supports structure identification and non-targeted analysis in chemical forensics.

The ability to query across a chemistry publishers content using chemical structure searching can dramatically enhance discoverability. RSC has been applying a number of procedures to integrate RSC’s ChemSpider community resource with our published content and databases. These include: 1) entity extraction procedures 2) chemical name conversion procedures using software algorithms and curated dictionaries 3) semantic markup and 4) a crowdsourced curation processes. This presentation will provide an overview of the processes we have utilized in order to provide structure-based integration to RSC content. We will discuss our ongoing efforts to extend the approaches to the mining of data from the rich supplementary information sections of many RSC publications. Our intention is to provide access to synthesis procedures and analytical data and further enrich the ChemSpider database for the benefit of the chemistry community.

It has grown into a resource containing over 21 million unique chemical structures from over 200 data sources.
ChemSpider has enabled real time curation of the data, association of analytical data with chemical structures, real-time deposition of single or batch chemical structures (including with activity data) and transaction-based predictions of physicochemical data. The social community aspects of the system demonstrate the potential of this approach. Curation of the data continues daily and thousands of edits and depositions by members of the community have dramatically improved the quality of the data relative to other public resources for chemistry.
This presentation will provide an overview of the history of ChemSpider, the present capabilities of the platform and how it can become one of the primary foundations of the semantic web for chemistry. It will also discuss some of the present projects underway since the acquisition of ChemSpider by the Royal Society of Chemistry.

The internet has revolutionized the sharing of data and information and in the domain of chemistry there are many resources available to help with our research. In recent years various online resources have been introduced that allow users to access information, properties and data associated with chemical entities. At a time when CAS has declared that they now have over 50 million unique chemical entities in the registry the number of chemical structures distributed across the internet also measures in the tens of millions. There are many tens of databases on the internet hosting chemical structures associated with data focused on the specific nature of the collection – metabolic pathways, spectral data collections, chemical vendor collections, biological assay data and crystal structures are examples. Unfortunately there has been no single way to search across all of these resources. ChemSpider has taken on the task of integrating the multiple online resources of information into a single database using the chemical structure as the primary key and retaining the link out and attribution to the original datasource. In this manner ChemSpider intends to become a structure-centric hub for the chemistry community. This talk will provide an overview of the ChemSpider platform, how it is being used as a crowdsourcing platform for community-based curation of the data and the future vision of ChemSpider as one of the pillars of the semantic web of chemistry.Navigating the Complex Web of Chemistry Using ChemSpider

Advanced Search capabilities supporting mass spectrometry include mass and formula-based searches, combined substructure-mass searches and searching experimental mass spectral data against predicted fragmentation spectra. A specific type of data mapping in the underpinning database, using “MS-Ready” structures, has proven to be a valuable approach for structure identification that links structures that can be identified via HRMS with related substances in the form of salts, and other multi-component mixtures that are available in commerce. These MS-Ready structures have been used as an input set for computational MS-fragmentation to provide a database against which to search experimental data for spectral matching. This presentation will provide an overview of how the CompTox Chemicals Dashboard supports structure identification and non-targeted analysis in chemical forensics.

The ability to query across a chemistry publishers content using chemical structure searching can dramatically enhance discoverability. RSC has been applying a number of procedures to integrate RSC’s ChemSpider community resource with our published content and databases. These include: 1) entity extraction procedures 2) chemical name conversion procedures using software algorithms and curated dictionaries 3) semantic markup and 4) a crowdsourced curation processes. This presentation will provide an overview of the processes we have utilized in order to provide structure-based integration to RSC content. We will discuss our ongoing efforts to extend the approaches to the mining of data from the rich supplementary information sections of many RSC publications. Our intention is to provide access to synthesis procedures and analytical data and further enrich the ChemSpider database for the benefit of the chemistry community.

There is an increasing availability of free and open access resources for chemists to use on the internet. Coupled with the increasing availability of Open Source software tools we are in the middle of a revolution in data availability and tools to manipulate these data. ChemSpider is a free access website for chemists built with the intention of providing a structure centric community for chemists. It was developed with the intention of aggregating and indexing available sources of chemical structures and their associated information into a single searchable repository and making it available to everybody, at no charge.
There are tens if not hundreds of chemical structure databases such as literature data, chemical vendor catalogs, molecular properties, environmental data, toxicity data, analytical data etc. and no single way to search across them. Despite the fact that there were a large number of databases containing chemical compounds and data available online their inherent quality, accuracy and completeness was lacking in many regards. The intention with ChemSpider was to provide a platform whereby the chemistry community could contribute to cleaning up the data, improving the quality of data online and expanding the information available to include data such as reaction syntheses, analytical data, experimental properties and linking to other valuable resources. It has grown into a resource containing over 21 million unique chemical structures from over 200 data sources.
ChemSpider has enabled real time curation of the data, association of analytical data with chemical structures, real-time deposition of single or batch chemical structures (including with activity data) and transaction-based predictions of physicochemical data. The social community aspects of the system demonstrate the potential of this approach. Curation of the data continues daily and thousands of edits and depositions by members of the community have dramatically improved the quality of the data relative to other public resources for chemistry.
This presentation will provide an overview of the history of ChemSpider, the present capabilities of the platform and how it can become one of the primary foundations of the semantic web for chemistry. It will also discuss some of the present projects underway since the acquisition of ChemSpider by the Royal Society of Chemistry.

The internet has revolutionized the sharing of data and information and in the domain of chemistry there are many resources available to help with our research. In recent years various online resources have been introduced that allow users to access information, properties and data associated with chemical entities. At a time when CAS has declared that they now have over 50 million unique chemical entities in the registry the number of chemical structures distributed across the internet also measures in the tens of millions. There are many tens of databases on the internet hosting chemical structures associated with data focused on the specific nature of the collection – metabolic pathways, spectral data collections, chemical vendor collections, biological assay data and crystal structures are examples. Unfortunately there has been no single way to search across all of these resources. ChemSpider has taken on the task of integrating the multiple online resources of information into a single database using the chemical structure as the primary key and retaining the link out and attribution to the original datasource. In this manner ChemSpider intends to become a structure-centric hub for the chemistry community. This talk will provide an overview of the ChemSpider platform, how it is being used as a crowdsourcing platform for community-based curation of the data and the future vision of ChemSpider as one of the pillars of the semantic web of chemistry.Navigating the Complex Web of Chemistry Using ChemSpider

With an intention to provide a free internet resource of chemistry related data for the community, ChemSpider provides an online database of chemical compounds, reaction syntheses and related data. Members of the community can contribute to the database via the deposition of chemical structures, synthesis procedures and analytical data. Data are also aggregated from many other depositors, at present over 400 data sources. The aggregation of data associated with over 25 million chemical compounds does not come without data quality issues. By engaging the community to curate the data the quality continues to improve on a daily basis. The presentation will provide an overview of our ongoing efforts to expand and curate the database. Using a combination of game-based and recognition systems as well as our dependence on societal giveaway by the community ChemSpider continues its path to become a high quality resource and foundation for the semantic web for chemistry.How Community Crowdsourcing and Social Networking is Helping to Build a Quali...

The Internet is the world’s publicly accessible container for a myriad of resources containing chemistry related data. Whether it be collections of millions of chemical compounds with their associated properties, interactive displays for analytical data, access to publications and patents or tapping into the increasing availability of online computational engines, the web has became the primary enabling technology to source information and data. Scientists collectively applaud and utilize the availability of such resources and an increasing proportion of the community are willing to support these resources by contributing both their data and skills to help curate and validate information on the web. This “crowdsourcing” has started to contribute large amounts of data to the commons and serves has a valuable platform for reference and, potentially, discovery.
ChemSpider is one of the chemistry community’s primary online resources and allows scientists to search across 25 million unique chemical compounds linked out to over 400 original data sources and has become a central hub for searching for chemistry-related data. The platform however offers much more to the community and has become a central repository for analytical data, specifically spectra, is a host for community-authored chemical syntheses and facilitates data curation and annotation by any of its users. This presentation will provide an overview of the ChemSpider platform in terms of available data and its efforts to act as a public repository and clearing ground for data curation. We will discuss how such a platform, when coupled with game-based approaches, facilitates both teaching and data validation and will discuss whether public domain resources such as ChemSpider will ultimately become authorities for chemistry.

The internet has provided access to unprecedented quantities of data. In the domain of chemistry specifically over the past decade the web has become populated with tens of millions of chemical structures and related properties of assays together with tens of thousands of spectra and syntheses. The data have, to a large extent, remained disparate and disconnected. In recent years with the wave of Web 2.0 participation any chemist can contribute to both the sharing and validation of chemistry-related data whether it be via Wikipedia, the online encyclopedia, or one of the multiple public compound databases. The presentation will offer a perspective of what is available today, our experiences of building a public compound database to link together the internet and a suggested path forward for enabling even greater integration and connectivity for chemistry data for the masses to both use and participate in developing.

Scientists commonly find themselves in a state of overwhelm in regards to the availability of information accessible to them. The distribution of resources now includes the entire space of the worldwide web, access to primary databases such as CAS and, commonly, a plethora of internally developed systems. While the web has provided improved access to chemistry-related information there has not been an online central resource allowing integrated chemical structure-searching of chemistry databases, chemistry articles, patents and web pages such as blogs and wikis. ChemSpider has built a structure centric community for chemists by providing free access to an online database and collaboration tool for chemists. The online database offers an environment for curating the data on ChemSpider as well as the deposition of chemical structures, analytical data and associated information and provides a significant knowledge base and resource for chemists working in different domains. An overview of present and future capabilities is given.Chemspider Presentation at the ACS Meeting in New orleans
