List of compounds Guide, Meaning , Facts, Information and Description

This page aims to list well-known chemical compounds, to stimulate the creation of Wikipedia articles.

This list is not necessarily complete or up to date – if you see an article that should be here but isn't (or one that shouldn't be here but is), please update the page accordingly.

Relevant links for chemical compounds are:

The CAS Substance Databases, which contains information on about 23 million compounds.
Chemfinder [1] is helpful for finding information about a chemical.
ChemIDplus at http://chem.sis.nlm.nih.gov/chemidplus/ is a useful non-commercial source for chemical lookups

These (commercial) links may also provide useful information:

Sigma Aldrich [1]
Acros Organics [1]
Lancaster [1]

Please note that whilst most componds are referred to by their IUPAC systematic names, "traditional" names have also been kept where they are in wide use or of significant historical interest.
