Search compounds
Find compounds on SharpSyn by name, synonym, CAS number, InChIKey or
molecular formula. Returns name, CAS, InChIKey, page URL and a summary of
suppliers, price and carbon footprint for each match, best matches first.
Parameterslimitqueryrequired
Everything SharpSyn publishes about one compound, given its CAS number,
InChIKey or name: identifiers, structure (SMILES, InChI), number of verified
suppliers with regions, grades and lead times, price range per kg with its
confidence label and data date, the cradle-to-gate carbon footprint with
tier, source and uncertainty, and the page URL to cite. If the compound has
no public page, says so and gives a link where the user can still ask
suppliers for it.
Parametersidentifierrequired
list_suppliers
List suppliers
Suppliers listed publicly on SharpSyn (companies that asked to be listed),
optionally only those in one country or offering one compound (CAS, InChIKey
or name). Returns company name, country, website, number of public listings
and the profile URL.
Parameterscountrycompound
request_quote_link
Quote request link
A link the user opens to ask SharpSyn's suppliers for a quote on a
compound (CAS number, InChIKey or name). Nothing is sent by calling this:
the user fills in quantities and sends the request themselves.
Parametersidentifierrequired
where_is_it_made
Where is it made
Where a compound is produced, from the SharpSyn Chemical World Map:
the known production sites (name, operator, country, coordinates), how
they spread over countries (share per country, single-site warning), the
confidence and source of each entry, and the page and map links to cite.
Site products from public research are estimates; operators marked
'unclaimed' have profiles built from public sources, not managed by them.
Each site has the status of the line (operating, closure_announced, idle,
planned, under_construction, closed, with dates), the operator of that
line and its capacity (t/a with basis, year and reference substance).
By default only lines producing now; include_inactive adds the rest.
Shares per country by site count and by capacity, and the coverage: how
many sites are known, how many with capacity, and what share of world
production that is where the world production is on record.
Parametersidentifierrequiredinclude_inactive
What a compound is made from (direction 'up', its precursors) or what
it is used to make ('down', derived products), following main industrial
routes for `depth` steps (1 to 4). Each entry has its name, CAS and page
URL where SharpSyn has one.
