Motivation[edit]
Crystallography Open Database (Q1142422) (COD) is an open-access collection of experimentally determined small molecule crystal structures. The proposed property would link various chemicals, minerals, alloys, etc. to the corresponding crystal structures in the COD in a way that is most similar to the one already used to link entries from other open databases (i.e. PubChem (Q278487)/PubChem CID (P662), Protein Data Bank (Q766195)/PDB structure ID (P638), ChEMBL (Q6120337)/ChEMBL ID (P592), etc). This would facilitate easier access (i.e. via an infobox) to the interactive 3-D models as well as the original crystallographic data that can be downloaded and reused without any restrictions.

Discussion[edit]
Support COD is THE crystallography database for future, worth being in Wikidata. Daniel Chateigner (talk) 17:39, 4th August 2021 (UTC)- Support The property would be very useful IMHO. Unlike some other chemical crystallography databases, the COD is open access (all data are CC0), so it can provide Wikidata and Wikipedia users (and all others!) with instant access to experimentally validated molecule structures.

- Support BTW, the Domain should be chemical compound, not crystal structure. --Egon Willighagen (talk) 06:53, 4 August 2021 (UTC)
- @Egon Willighagen: Thank you for the support, changed the domain to "chemical compound" as suggested.
- Support [Disclaimer: I have been on the COD advisory board for many years, and my research group in Cambridge contributed over ten thousand potential entries, and also a lot of Open Source code]. The CC0 makes it straightforward to include links to other WP and WD entries. The database is very well indexed and makes wide use of InChI and other identifiers Petermr (talk) 07:22, 4 August 2021 (UTC)
- Note that all entries are automatically linked to an interactive JSMol 3D display which can show ball-and-stick, surfaces, polyhedra, and symmetry-extended crystal structures (follow the links in the examples and left-click the display for options) Petermr (talk) 22:48, 4 August 2021 (UTC)
