Organic compounds synonym index

This is the handbook that is most often consulted for data on organic compounds. Although a new edition of the handbook is published each year, the changes that are made are often minor. An older copy of the handbook will often suffice for most purposes. In addition to the extensive tables of properties of organic compounds, the CRC Handbook includes sections on nomenclature and ring structures, an index of synonyms, and an index of molecular formulas. 

CRC Handbook of Chemistry and Physics, annual editions. CRC Press, Boca Raton, FL. The CRC is probably the best-known single-volume handbook, and it contains a wealth of useful data in all areas of chemistry and physics. The most useful part for organic chemists is the section headed "Physical Constants of Organic Compounds," which provides formulas, structures, molar masses (molecular weights), densities, refractive indexes, solubilities, color, and melting and boiling points for about 11,000 compounds. CAS RNs are also included. The newer editions index this section by synonym, molecular formula, and CAS RN. Many institutions also subscribe to the Web version of the CRC.
