[Zinc-fans] Question about "all purchasable" subset.

[marc]

Hello other Zinc fans,
I've just recently started using the OpenEyes utilities ROCS and EON to 
do shape/electrostatics comparison against ZINC on a couple of projects. 

Quick question about the large "all purchasable" subset.   I've found a 
number of hits from this subset, that when I follow up
on them only list a single "vendor" (pubchem).  Are compounds listed in 
Pubchem really purchasable?  I've never thought of Pubchem as a vendor, 
and can't see any way of procuring compounds when I visit their website.

Assuming I'm right, say in this small subset of my hits (30 compounds), 
it appears that 5 of them appear only in PubChem.   (~16% of the hits 
below don't appear to be purchasable, unless Zinc is mis-categorizing 
them).  Any clarification on this issue?  thanks!
