Chemical Compound Properties Database

This database contains physical properties and alternative names for thousands of chemical compounds. In chemical formula you may use:
  • Any chemical element. Capitalize the first letter in chemical symbol and use lower case for the remaining letters: Ca, Fe, Mg, Mn, S, O, H, C, N, Na, K, Cl, Al.
  • Functional groups: D, T, Ph, Me, Et, Bu, AcAc, For, Tos, Bz, TMS, tBu, Bzl, Bn, Dmg
  • parenthesis () or brackets [].
  • Common compound names.
Examples: H2O, CO2, CH4, NH3, NaCl, CaCO3, H2SO4, C6H12O6, water, carbon dioxide, methane, ammonia, sodium chloride, calcium carbonate, sulfuric acid, glucose.

The database includes melting points, boiling points, densities, and alternative names collected from various chemical sources.

What are compound properties?

Chemical compound properties include physical characteristics such as melting point, boiling point, and density, which are important for chemical identification and applications. Alternative names help identify the same compound when referenced by different naming conventions.

How to use this tool?

Enter a chemical formula (like H2O) or compound name (like water) to look up available properties and alternative names. The tool will search through the database and display any available physical properties and known alternative names for the compound.
