Abstract

A chemical digital library is a database specially designed to store chemical data. This information is about chemical and crystal structures, ACD, Zinc, MayBridge, MedChem, Beilstein, WDI, WOMBAT, TSCA, and Thermophysical data. This review paper presented the overview of different types of digital libraries/databases uses in chemistry. Keywords: ACD, beilstein, maybridge, medchem, thermophysical data
