## Release Schedule
The full dataset is refreshed annually.
Next scheduled update: Q1 2027.
## Enrichment Sources
- PubMed via NCBI E-utilities (esearch)
- ClinicalTrials.gov API v2
- ChEMBL REST API (with PubChem InChIKey fallback)
- PatentsView REST API (USPTO)
- PubChem PUG REST API (CID + Canonical SMILES)
## Versioning
Current version: v2.4.0 (April 2026)
All versions are tagged in this repository.
## v2.4.0 Changelog
- Added partner_cid column (cross-matched PubChem CID from COCONUT/FooDB)
- Added inchi_key column (InChI key for structural identification)

- Added partner_match_method column (cross-match methodology transparency)
- Null-CID reduced to 17,616 (-8% vs v2.3.1)
- Schema expanded from 12 to 16 columns
- DOI: 10.5281/zenodo.19660107
## v2.3.1 Changelog
- Added compound_type column (5 categories: discrete_phytochemical, substance_class, complex_mixture, inorganic_element, generic_ambiguous)
- Added patent_count_method column (query methodology transparency)
- RESIN/RESINS CID correction (CID 133110026 was alpha-Copaene, set to NULL)
- Forensic audit corrections for inorganic/generic compounds
- PubChem CID/SMILES coverage: 75.4% (unchanged from v2.3)
- DOI: 10.5281/zenodo.19660107
## v2.3 Changelog
