Provenance page

Official sources for identity and EU status

Why this source route matters

The source page should help teams verify both the BDE-209 identity story and the official records behind POPs and Candidate List interpretation, which are often blended incorrectly in secondary summaries.

identity

PubChem compound record

Open the identity source for synonyms, structure, canonical SMILES, CAS context, and cross-registry identifiers.

global

PubChem PUG-REST

Primary open identity surface for broad molecule inventory expansion.

global

PubChem PUG-View

Useful when the site needs richer annotation text, hazard summaries, or evidence blocks beyond core identifiers.

EU

ECHA Candidate List

Official publication surface for substances of very high concern.

EU

ECHA SCIP

Best official starting point for SCIP duties, article-notification rules, and Waste Framework Directive context.

EU

ECHA SCIP Database

Searchable public database for SCIP article notifications under the Waste Framework Directive.

EU

ECHA Information on Chemicals

Best official starting point when a chemical needs a broader ECHA info layer beyond a single framework registry.

EU

ECHA Authorisation List

Use when a substance moves from watchlist interest to authorisation logic.

EU

ECHA POPs Regulation List

Important for legacy brominated flame retardants and high-risk persistence topics.

EU

ECHA CLH Intentions Registry

Useful for upcoming classification pressure even before an outcome page is curated.

EU

ECHA C&L Inventory

Useful for classification and labelling checks, hazard pressure, and CLP context around monitored chemicals.

US

EPA CompTox Chemicals Dashboard

Secondary open source for cross-checking identifiers and screening context.

EU

ECHA Microplastics Topic Page

Relevant for cosmetics and formulation compliance questions.
