ChemSpider is a free chemical structure database providing fast text and structure search access to over 26 million structures from hundreds of data sources.

DrugBank database is a unique bioinformatics and cheminformatics resource that combines detailed drug (i.e. chemical, pharmacological and pharmaceutical) data with comprehensive drug target (i.e. sequence, structure, and pathway) information.

Green chemistry, also known as sustainable chemistry, is the design of chemical products and processes that reduce or eliminate the use or generation of hazardous substances. The EPA created this guide with basic information and projects that promote green chemistry.

The Green Chemistry Assistant is a web site and fully functional web application. The overall objective of the site is to help you analyze chemical processes that you are interested in in terms of Green Chemistry and related topics beyond the typical confines of this field.

This is an online guide to chemical nomenclature, terminology, symbols and units as well as terminology definitions from IUPAC recommendations.
