PubChem is the world's largest freely available chemical database with 110M+ compounds and 270M+ bioactivities. Query chemical structures by name, CID, or SMILES, retrieve molecular properties, perform similarity and substructure searches, access bioactivity data using PUG-REST API and PubChemPy.
This skill should be used when:
Search for compounds using multiple identifier types:
By Chemical Name:
import pubchempy as pcp
compounds = pcp.get_compounds('aspirin', 'name')
compound = compounds[0]
By CID (Compound ID):
compound = pcp.Compound.from_cid(2244) # Aspirin
By SMILES:
compound = pcp.get_compounds('CC(=O)OC1=CC=CC=C1C(=O)O', 'smiles')[0]
By InChI:
compound = pcp.get_compounds('InChI=1S/C9H8O4/...', 'inchi')[0]
By Molecular Formula:
compounds = pcp.get_compounds('C9H8O4', 'formula')
# Returns all compounds matching this formula
Retrieve molecular properties for compounds using either high-level or low-level approaches:
Using PubChemPy (Recommended):
import pubchempy as pcp
# Get compound object with all properties
compound = pcp.get_compounds('caffeine', 'name')[0]
# Access individual properties
molecular_formula = compound.molecular_formula
molecular_weight = compound.molecular_weight
iupac_name = compound.iupac_name
smiles = compound.canonical_smiles
inchi = compound.inchi
xlogp = compound.xlogp # Partition coefficient
tpsa = compound.tpsa # Topological polar surface area
Get Specific Properties:
# Request only specific properties
properties = pcp.get_properties(
['MolecularFormula', 'MolecularWeight', 'CanonicalSMILES', 'XLogP'],
'aspirin',
'name'
)
# Returns list of dictionaries
Batch Property Retrieval:
import pandas as pd
compound_names = ['aspirin', 'ibuprofen', 'paracetamol']
all_properties = []
for name in compound_names:
props = pcp.get_properties(
['MolecularFormula', 'MolecularWeight', 'XLogP'],
name,
'name'
)
all_properties.extend(props)
df = pd.DataFrame(all_properties)
Available Properties: MolecularFormula, MolecularWeight, CanonicalSMILES, IsomericSMILES, InChI, InChIKey, IUPACName, XLogP, TPSA, HBondDonorCount, HBondAcceptorCount, RotatableBondCount, Complexity, Charge, and many more (see references/api_reference.md for complete list).
Find structurally similar compounds using Tanimoto similarity:
import pubchempy as pcp
# Start with a query compound
query_compound = pcp.get_compounds('gefitinib', 'name')[0]
query_smiles = query_compound.canonical_smiles
# Perform similarity search
similar_compounds = pcp.get_compounds(
query_smiles,
'smiles',
searchtype='similarity',
Threshold=85, # Similarity threshold (0-100)
MaxRecords=50
)
# Process results
for compound in similar_compounds[:10]:
print(f"CID {compound.cid}: {compound.iupac_name}")
print(f" MW: {compound.molecular_weight}")
Note: Similarity searches are asynchronous for large queries and may take 15-30 seconds to complete. PubChemPy handles the asynchronous pattern automatically.
Find compounds containing a specific structural motif:
import pubchempy as pcp
# Search for compounds containing pyridine ring
pyridine_smiles = 'c1ccncc1'
matches = pcp.get_compounds(
pyridine_smiles,
'smiles',
searchtype='substructure',
MaxRecords=100
)
print(f"Found {len(matches)} compounds containing pyridine")
Common Substructures:
c1ccccc1c1ccncc1c1ccc(O)cc1C(=O)OConvert between different chemical structure formats:
import pubchempy as pcp
compound = pcp.get_compounds('aspirin', 'name')[0]
# Convert to different formats
smiles = compound.canonical_smiles
inchi = compound.inchi
inchikey = compound.inchikey
cid = compound.cid
# Download structure files
pcp.download('SDF', 'aspirin', 'name', 'aspirin.sdf', overwrite=True)
pcp.download('JSON', '2244', 'cid', 'aspirin.json', overwrite=True)
Generate 2D structure images:
import pubchempy as pcp
# Download compound structure as PNG
pcp.download('PNG', 'caffeine', 'name', 'caffeine.png', overwrite=True)
# Using direct URL (via requests)
import requests
cid = 2244 # Aspirin
url = f"https://pubchem.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/rest/pug/compound/cid/{cid}/PNG?image_size=large"
response = requests.get(url)
with open('structure.png', 'wb') as f:
f.write(response.content)
Get all known names and synonyms for a compound:
import pubchempy as pcp
synonyms_data = pcp.get_synonyms('aspirin', 'name')
if synonyms_data:
cid = synonyms_data[0]['CID']
synonyms = synonyms_data[0]['Synonym']
print(f"CID {cid} has {len(synonyms)} synonyms:")
for syn in synonyms[:10]: # First 10
print(f" - {syn}")
Retrieve biological activity data from assays:
import requests
import json
# Get bioassay summary for a compound
cid = 2244 # Aspirin
url = f"https://pubchem.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/rest/pug/compound/cid/{cid}/assaysummary/JSON"
response = requests.get(url)
if response.status_code == 200:
data = response.json()
# Process bioassay information
table = data.get('Table', {})
rows = table.get('Row', [])
print(f"Found {len(rows)} bioassay records")
For more complex bioactivity queries, use the scripts/bioactivity_query.py helper script which provides:
Access detailed compound information through PUG-View:
import requests
cid = 2244
url = f"https://pubchem.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/rest/pug_view/data/compound/{cid}/JSON"
response = requests.get(url)
if response.status_code == 200:
annotations = response.json()
# Contains extensive data including:
# - Chemical and Physical Properties
# - Drug and Medication Information
# - Pharmacology and Biochemistry
# - Safety and Hazards
# - Toxicity
# - Literature references
# - Patents
Get Specific Section:
# Get only drug information
url = f"https://pubchem.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/rest/pug_view/data/compound/{cid}/JSON?heading=Drug and Medication Information"
Install PubChemPy for Python-based access:
uv pip install pubchempy
For direct API access and bioactivity queries:
uv pip install requests
Optional for data analysis:
uv pip install pandas

Best Practices:
Error Handling:
from pubchempy import BadRequestError, NotFoundError, TimeoutError
try:
compound = pcp.get_compounds('query', 'name')[0]
except NotFoundError:
print("Compound not found")
except BadRequestError:
print("Invalid request format")
except TimeoutError:
print("Request timed out - try reducing scope")
except IndexError:
print("No results returned")
Convert between different chemical identifiers:
import pubchempy as pcp
# Start with any identifier type
compound = pcp.get_compounds('caffeine', 'name')[0]
# Extract all identifier formats
identifiers = {
'CID': compound.cid,
'Name': compound.iupac_name,
'SMILES': compound.canonical_smiles,
'InChI': compound.inchi,
'InChIKey': compound.inchikey,
'Formula': compound.molecular_formula
}
Screen compounds using Lipinski's Rule of Five:
import pubchempy as pcp
def check_drug_likeness(compound_name):
compound = pcp.get_compounds(compound_name, 'name')[0]
# Lipinski's Rule of Five
rules = {
'MW <= 500': compound.molecular_weight <= 500,
'LogP <= 5': compound.xlogp <= 5 if compound.xlogp else None,
'HBD <= 5': compound.h_bond_donor_count <= 5,
'HBA <= 10': compound.h_bond_acceptor_count <= 10
}
violations = sum(1 for v in rules.values() if v is False)
return rules, violations
rules, violations = check_drug_likeness('aspirin')
print(f"Lipinski violations: {violations}")
Identify structurally similar compounds to a known drug:
import pubchempy as pcp
# Start with known drug
reference_drug = pcp.get_compounds('imatinib', 'name')[0]
reference_smiles = reference_drug.canonical_smiles
# Find similar compounds
similar = pcp.get_compounds(
reference_smiles,
'smiles',
searchtype='similarity',
Threshold=85,
MaxRecords=20
)
# Filter by drug-like properties
candidates = []
for comp in similar:
if comp.molecular_weight and 200 <= comp.molecular_weight <= 600:
if comp.xlogp and -1 <= comp.xlogp <= 5:
candidates.append(comp)
print(f"Found {len(candidates)} drug-like candidates")
Compare properties across multiple compounds:
import pubchempy as pcp
import pandas as pd
compound_list = ['aspirin', 'ibuprofen', 'naproxen', 'celecoxib']
properties_list = []
for name in compound_list:
try:
compound = pcp.get_compounds(name, 'name')[0]
properties_list.append({
'Name': name,
'CID': compound.cid,
'Formula': compound.molecular_formula,
'MW': compound.molecular_weight,
'LogP': compound.xlogp,
'TPSA': compound.tpsa,
'HBD': compound.h_bond_donor_count,
'HBA': compound.h_bond_acceptor_count
})
except Exception as e:
print(f"Error processing {name}: {e}")
df = pd.DataFrame(properties_list)
print(df.to_string(index=False))
Screen for compounds containing specific pharmacophores:
import pubchempy as pcp
# Define pharmacophore (e.g., sulfonamide group)
pharmacophore_smiles = 'S(=O)(=O)N'
# Search for compounds containing this substructure
hits = pcp.get_compounds(
pharmacophore_smiles,
'smiles',
searchtype='substructure',
MaxRecords=100
)
# Further filter by properties
filtered_hits = [
comp for comp in hits
if comp.molecular_weight and comp.molecular_weight < 500
]
print(f"Found {len(filtered_hits)} compounds with desired substructure")
