New: Normally chemists who publish their available compounds structures in the MDPI databases should have at least one unit amount deposited as specimen. Now, you may publish here these structures without the specimen deposit if you ensure the availability of the enlisted compounds.

Sample contributors are requested to supply an abstract for each available compound detailing several field entries for incorporation into the database.

In all cases, compound abstracts need to be filled out by you following the given example. There are at most 12 entries for each compound. At the very least the molecular structure (entry item 2) must be inputted, and may be drawn by hand, for a compound.

8 blank forms on one page

You may supply the structures and save the structures as mol files with your own ID code for the compound as the mol file name. All chemical structure drawing software can export the structure file as mol file or save as mol file.

For each registered compound, such entries are arranged as paragraphs in a text, in the following order:
 
 
name of the contributor (e.g. Dr. M. A. Khan. If the contributor's name should not be released, "Anonymous" can be inserted here.)

 structure (within an area of 5 x 4 cm. The use of ISIS/Draw is recommended. Download the latest version of ISIS/Draw for free. Drawing by hand is also acceptable.)

 the name of the compound, if available

 formula (e.g. C19H21NO5S2)

 molecular weight (e.g. 234.50)

 melting point (e.g., 123, 123.5-125, etc.. For liquid sample, enter oil, etc.)

 total amount submitted (e.g. 0.205g)

 unit amount/unit price (e.g. 250mg/70USD)

CAS Reg. No., if available

 name (the compound series number used in the publication)

 the publication citation where the preparation of this compound is described (e.g., Molecules, 1996, 1, 234)

 your own ID code for the compound

 NMR data

You may download a sample sdf file here After download, change the file name to sample.sdf (for Windows). Because it is text file, it can be directly applied to Macintosh computers. You may see the sdf text file.

 A db file can be downloaded here. After download, change the file name to sample.db and use ISIS/Base for Windows to open it.
