Some occasions where it is normal practice within Wikipedia chemistry to cite the primary literature include: </p> <ul><li>the first report of a discovery/synthesis of a (compound, reaction, etc.), if the citation is known;</li> <li>the report of a crystal structure determination, if we have used the atomic coordinates to create the picture (the citation may go on the image description page);</li> <li>IUPAC recommendations for chemical nomenclature and other terminology.</li></ul> <p>The secondary literature includes review articles, monographs, chemical encyclopedias and specialist textbooks. The use of the available secondary literature is <i>strongly recommended</i> to reference information on chemical safety, in preference to either (primary) journal articles or (tertiary) generalist textbooks: see <a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:Manual_of_Style_(chemistry)/Safety" class="mw-redirect" title="Wikipedia:Manual of Style (chemistry)/Safety">Wikipedia:Manual of Style (chemistry)/Safety</a> for more details and examples of secondary sources. <i><a href="/wiki/Organic_Syntheses" title="Organic Syntheses">Organic Syntheses</a></i> and <i><a href="/wiki/Inorganic_Syntheses" title="Inorganic Syntheses">Inorganic Syntheses</a></i> are considered to be secondary sources rather than primary sources. </p><p>Websites are normally not considered authoritative but are sometimes appropriate. A few websites which are well regarded include: </p> <ul><li><style data-mw-deduplicate="TemplateStyles:r1238218222">.mw-parser-output cite.citation{font-style:inherit;word-wrap:break-word}.mw-parser-output .citation q{quotes:"\"""\"""'""'"}.mw-parser-output .citation:target{background-color:rgba(0,127,255,0.133)}.mw-parser-output .id-lock-free.id-lock-free a{background:url("//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/6/65/Lock-green.svg")right 0.1em center/9px no-repeat}.mw-parser-output .id-lock-limited.id-lock-limited a,.mw-parser-output .id-lock-registration.id-lock-registration a{background:url("//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/d/d6/Lock-gray-alt-2.svg")right 0.1em center/9px no-repeat}.mw-parser-output .id-lock-subscription.id-lock-subscription a{background:url("//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/a/aa/Lock-red-alt-2.svg")right 0.1em center/9px no-repeat}.mw-parser-output .cs1-ws-icon a{background:url("//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/4/4c/Wikisource-logo.svg")right 0.1em center/12px no-repeat}body:not(.skin-timeless):not(.skin-minerva) .mw-parser-output .id-lock-free a,body:not(.skin-timeless):not(.skin-minerva) .mw-parser-output .id-lock-limited a,body:not(.skin-timeless):not(.skin-minerva) .mw-parser-output .id-lock-registration a,body:not(.skin-timeless):not(.skin-minerva) .mw-parser-output .id-lock-subscription a,body:not(.skin-timeless):not(.skin-minerva) .mw-parser-output .cs1-ws-icon a{background-size:contain;padding:0 1em 0 0}.mw-parser-output .cs1-code{color:inherit;background:inherit;border:none;padding:inherit}.mw-parser-output .cs1-hidden-error{display:none;color:var(--color-error,#d33)}.mw-parser-output .cs1-visible-error{color:var(--color-error,#d33)}.mw-parser-output .cs1-maint{display:none;color:#085;margin-left:0.3em}.mw-parser-output .cs1-kern-left{padding-left:0.2em}.mw-parser-output .cs1-kern-right{padding-right:0.2em}.mw-parser-output .citation .mw-selflink{font-weight:inherit}@media screen{.mw-parser-output .cs1-format{font-size:95%}html.skin-theme-clientpref-night .mw-parser-output .cs1-maint{color:#18911f}}@media screen and (prefers-color-scheme:dark){html.skin-theme-clientpref-os .mw-parser-output .cs1-maint{color:#18911f}}</style><cite id="CITEREFWilliam_Reusch1999" class="citation web cs1">William Reusch (1999). <a rel="nofollow" class="external text" href="http://www.cem.msu.edu/~reusch/VirtualText/intro1.htm">"index"</a>. <i>Virtual Textbook of Organic Chemistry</i>. <a href="/wiki/Michigan_State_University" title="Michigan State University">Michigan State University</a>.</cite><span title="ctx_ver=Z39.88-2004&amp;rft_val_fmt=info%3Aofi%2Ffmt%3Akev%3Amtx%3Ajournal&amp;rft.genre=unknown&amp;rft.jtitle=Virtual+Textbook+of+Organic+Chemistry&amp;rft.atitle=index&amp;rft.date=1999&amp;rft.au=William+Reusch&amp;rft_id=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.cem.msu.edu%2F~reusch%2FVirtualText%2Fintro1.htm&amp;rfr_id=info%3Asid%2Fen.wikipedia.org%3AWikipedia%3AManual+of+Style%2FChemistry%2FReferences+and+external+links" class="Z3988"></span></li> <li><link rel="mw-deduplicated-inline-style" href="mw-data:TemplateStyles:r1238218222"><cite id="CITEREFRob_Toreki" class="citation web cs1">Rob Toreki. <a rel="nofollow" class="external text" href="http://www.ilpi.com/organomet/">"index"</a>. <i>The Organometallic HyperTextbook</i>.
