title: Database of C-glycosylporphyrins in Web fashion.
abstract: The aim of this work was to organize chemical data in a client-server environment using Database Management System and Web fashion for the client interface. To solve this ancient problem (for us) merging text data, reaction schemes, tridimensional structures, and NMR, CD, and UV spectra images, we have based our implementation on a few fundamental points: no cost for the user, availability of data via the Internet, standard and freeware software, and a Web browser for the database inquiry. These functions are delivered in a platform-independent manner via the Internet and are used by computational experts and nonexperts alike. C-Glycosylporphyrins is the class of compounds chosen to test our applications. These results can be exportable for many other classes of chemical compounds.
