We have started to develop Computed Property Data Base: CPDB. A part of the CPDB has been opened to the public at RIO-DB (Research Information Database) of the National Institute of Advanced Industrial Science and Technology, Tsukuba from January 2005.

Thirteen molecular properties (Table 1) of 258,907 molecules were stored in CPDB. All of the properties are estimated using mainly the Joback method which is implemented in an Integrated Software Tool for Molecular Design: MolWorks. It is possible to retrieve not only molecular property of input but also molecules which have inputted properties.
CPDB is an attempt to develop a system for efficient molecular screening using estimated molecular property.
