PubChem MCP
The PubChem MCP server provides access to the NIH PubChem database, offering tools to resolve chemical names to Compound IDs, retrieve standard molecular properties like SMILES and InChI, list synonyms, and fetch pharmacological classifications for over 100 million molecules without requiring authentication.
Package and access
Local package with source-attributed installation metadata. Koskamo does not execute packages during review.
What you can do with it
- Resolve common chemical or drug names to PubChem CIDs
- Get standard properties like molecular formula and SMILES for a CID
- List all synonyms including IUPAC and CAS numbers for a CID
- Retrieve pharmacological classification trees for drug discovery
Source and maintenance
- Maintenance checked
