Zinc data base drug ID to drug name convertor

Question

[maria2019]

Hi,

I have downloaded all FDA approved drugs from ZINC data base, about 1600. Each drug has an ID (e.g. ZINC000000000053, which stands for Asprin). How can I convert a list of IDs to the drug name (e.g Aspring), and get some information about the drug?

Have you tried using Google? I did a simple search using ZINC000000000053 and it led to ZINC database. There is a search form that accepts ZINC IDs as queries.

Thanks for your comment, Mensur. I tried that, however, the output format of csv does not give me the name or any other information (even though I check the "name"). The output format of summary table has the names but it does not get extracted as a csv file.
