  International Union of Pure and Applied Chemistry
Terminology definitions published by IUPAC are drafted by international committees of experts in the appropriate chemistry sub-disciplines, and ratified by IUPAC's Interdivisional Committee on Nomenclature and Symbols.
All IUPAC recommendations published up to the end of 1995 were considered for inclusion, together with some particularly significant material published in 1996 (class names, kinetics, clinical chemistry quantities and units, stereochemistry, photochemistry and basic polymer terms).
Verbal definitions of terms from Quantities, Units and Symbols in Physical Chemistry (the IUPAC Green Book, in which definitions are generally given as mathematical expressions) were developed specially for this Compendium by the Physical Chemistry Division of IUPAC.

 Glossary of Medicinal Chemistry
This was felt necessary with regard to the rapid changes occuring in medicinal chemistry and also by the need to establish international definition standards.
Effectively the possibility exists that in different countries certain terms may not have the same meaning, in such a case the creation of an internationally accepted definition is particularly justified.
The glossary has been compiled in part from definitions proposed by the Working Party in part from earlier IUPAC glossaries and in part from well-accepted definitions taken from the literature but which were sometimes published in journals or books that may not be readily accessible.
