The Compendium is popularly referred to as the "Gold Book", in recognition of the contribution of the late Victor Gold, who initiated work on the first edition. It is one of the series of IUPAC "Colour Books" on chemical nomenclature, terminology, symbols and units, and collects together terminology definitions from IUPAC recommendations already published in Pure and Applied Chemistry and in the other Colour Books. The result is a collection of nearly 7000 terms, with authoritative definitions, spanning the whole range of chemistry.

This book strives to improve the exchange of scientific information among the readers in different disciplines and across different nations. In a rapidly expanding volume of scientific literature where each discipline has a tendency to retreat into its own jargon this book attempts to provide a readable compilation of widely used terms and symbols from many sources together with brief understandable definitions. This is the definitive guide for scientists and organizations working across a multitude of disciplines requiring internationally approved nomenclature.

Encyclopedias

This page contains encyclopedias and major reference works.

The Encyclopedia is the most comprehensive analytical chemistry reference available, covering all aspects from theory and instrumentation through to applications and techniques. The chemistry and techniques are described as performed in the laboratory, in the field, or by remote sensing. The level of detail is similar to that of a laboratory protocol and, together with the cited references, will support the analysis of complex inorganic, organic and biological structures by researchers.

Designed to provide a detailed and comprehensive publication covering all facets of the science and practice of analysis, the 2nd edition includes comprehensive coverage of techniques used for the determination of specific elements, compounds and groups of compounds, in physical or biological matrices. It addresses applications of chemical analysis in all areas, ranging from such topics as medicine to environmental science, and geology to food science. Important characterization techniques, such as microscopy and surface analysis are also included.

The Encyclopedia of Chromatography is an authoritative source of information for practitioners and researchers in chemistry, biology, physics, engineering, and materials science.

Updated to reflect the latest developments in operational procedures for today's sophisticated chemical technologies, this book remains an undisputed classic in the field. Expanded to include coverage for process operators, this authoritative resource contains in-depth details on chemical safety, laboratory procedures, chemical nomenclature, basic electricity, laboratory statistics, and instrumental techniques. Step-by-step directions for performing virtually every laboratory task are also included in this practical guide.

Covering both organic and inorganic compounds, this volume dictionary brings together accurate chemical, structural and bibliographic data on the most commonly used reagents in the various branches of analytical chemistry. Over 5,000 compounds are comprehensively indexed by Name, Molecular Formula, CAS Registry Number and Type of Compound. The unique Type of Compound Index is particularly valuable as compounds are indexed by use (eg NMR shift reagent), by analyte (eg nickel) and by compound group (eg formazan, crown ether), making the data accessible by a variety of criteria.

The Analytical Instrumentation Handbook serves as a guide for workers in analytical chemistry, who need a starting place for information about a specific instrumental technique, either as a basic introduction to it or as a means of finding leading references dealing with theory and methodology for an instrumental technique. The chapters have been written from the standpoint of the instrumentation as it is in use today, with an introductory description of the technique(s), and a theoretical treatment of the science and technology, wherever it is applicable or where it will facilitate an understanding of the instrumentation.

The Handbook of Acid-Base Indicators compiles the most up-to-date, comprehensive information on over 200 water-based and solvent-based indicators into a single source.
