Gmelin via the Commander Interface. MDL
Information Systems, Inc.
Online version of the Gmelin handbook is available via the
Commander interface (same interface for Beilstein). Over 1.4
million compounds are covered, including polymers, ceramics,
glasses, minerals and alloys. Data is reported from 1772-present.
Data in the following categories may be reported: characterization,
including material composition and structural data, chemical
properties, including preparation and reaction details, condensed
phase data, electric, magnetic, mechanical, molecular, and optical
properties, electrochemistry, phase transition data, quantum
chemical calculations, spectroscopy, systemic properties, such as
solubility and vapor pressure in solution, thermodynamics,
transport phenomena, thermal properties. Access is provided from
workstations in the Chemistry Library and the Crerar Library.
Manuals for the use of this database are available in the Chemistry
Library. The client software may be downloaded by authorized
University of Chicago users for use in labs and offices on campus.
Search assistance and advice are also available from the Chemistry
Librarian.

Gmelin Handbuch der anorganischen Chemie. 8th
edition. Multi-volume set with supplements Springer-Verlag: Berlin,
1924-1996.
This comprehensive compilation provides critically evaluated data
for elements, inorganic and organometallic compounds in the context
of scholarly monographs. The set is organized by element. More than
one hundred years of data is included. Much of the set is published
in German, with more recent volumes appearing in English. There is
a formula index available. An online version is also available and
may be used as a source of references to the print handbook, which
contains much more detail than the online file. See Gmelin via
the Commander Interface for more information.
