Abstract:
Organizational records of the International Union of Pure and Applied Chemistry, which mainly cover the period from its founding in 1919 to 1973.

The International Union of Pure and Applied Chemistry (IUPAC), is an international association of bodies (National Adhering Organizations), which represent the chemists of different member countries. IUPAC grew out of an international awareness of the need for standardization in chemistry necessary for the smooth development and growth of international trade and commerce.

The origins of IUPAC date back to 1860, when German chemist August Kekulé organized an international conference with the objective of reaching agreement on the theory of organic chemistry, which would allow the standardization of nomenclature and the writing of chemical formulae. In a like manner, several subsequent international chemistry conferences were held to address the issue of nomenclature standardization. In 1892, the International Chemistry Committee established the Geneva Nomenclature, which set the first international standards for organic chemical nomenclature.

In 1911, the International Association of Chemical Societies (IACS) was formed. At its first meeting in Paris, France in April 1911, IACS delegates produced a set of proposals regarding issues they believed needed to be addressed by the international chemistry community, which included the coordination of nomenclature of organic and inorganic chemistry, and the standardization of atomic weights, physical constants, and formats of publications. A number of other issues of concern to the delegates were also addressed at this meeting, including the editing of tables for the properties of matter, the establishment of a commission for the review of work, and the implementation of measures to prevent the repetition of papers. IACS held two more annual meetings in 1912 and 1913 respectively. The outbreak of World War I in August 1914 prevented further meetings and dealt IACS a blow from which it never recovered.

In April 1919, the Société de Chimie Industrielle organized a conference of chemists from Allied countries in Paris, France. At this conference, the delegates proposed the formation of a new international chemistry organization to replace IACS. The membership of the new organization would be composed of national chemistry organizations. The response to this proposal was a positive one. IACS was formally dissolved at a meeting of the Commission for International Cooperation in Chemistry. In IACS' place, the International Union of Pure and Applied Chemistry (IUPAC) was formally established in July 1919. In 1920, French chemist Charles Moreau was named IUPAC's first President.

Currently, IUPAC's objective is to contribute to the advancement of pure and applied chemistry in all its aspects. To achieve this end, it works to foster communication between nations and to encourage the evolution and adoption of standardized chemical nomenclatures and methodologies. IUPAC is best known for being an arbiter on matters of chemical nomenclature. It is also an active sponsor of conferences and symposia held throughout the world.

IUPAC was an active member of the International Research Council (1922-1931) and its successor the International Congress of Scientific Unions (1931-2002). It is currently an active member of the International Congress of Scientific Unions' successor, the International Science Council (2002-Present).

IUPAC is registered in Zurich, Switzerland and its administrative offices are currently based in Research Triangle Park, North Carolina. As of January 2022, IUPAC's membership is made up of fifty-five National Adhering Organizations, twenty-nine Associated Organizations, and thirty-two Company Associates. Prior to November 2021, there were a number of Associate National Adhering Organizations (also called Observer Countries) active in IUPAC, but this membership category has been discontinued.

The organizational structure of IUPAC has evolved over the course of its existence. As of January 2022, there are eight Divisions and fourteen Committees within IUPAC. The most up to date IUPAC organizational chart can be viewed on IUPAC's website at https://iupac.org/who-we-are/organizational-chart/.

Series Description

This series contains IUPAC's Divisions files, which document the activities of seven IUPAC divisions. The contents of the Divisions files are arranged into the following seven sub-series:

  1. Physical Chemistry Division (Division I)
  2. Inorganic Chemistry Division (Division II)
  3. Organic Chemistry Division (Division III)
  4. Macromolecular Division (Division IV)
  5. Analytical Chemistry Division (Division V)
  6. Applied Chemistry Division (Division VI)
  7. Clinical Chemistry Division (Division VII)
Sub-series Description

This sub-series contains the files of IUPAC's Physical Chemistry Division. Established in 1949, it worked to promote international collaboration between scientists in physical chemistry and related fields. The Physical Chemistry Division was renamed the Physical and Biophysical Chemistry Division in September 2000.

Arranged in its original order, the Physical Chemistry Division files specifically document the activities of the following six bodies that were either formed or placed under the Physical Chemistry Division's oversight:

  1. Physical Chemistry Division Committee
  2. Commission I.1: Symbols, Terminology, and Units
  3. Commission I.2: Thermodynamics and Thermochemistry
  4. Commission I.3: Electrochemistry
  5. Commission I.4: Physiochemical Measurements and Standards
  6. Commission I.6: Colloid and Surface Chemistry

Correspondence makes up the bulk of the materials found in the Physical Chemistry Division files. A variety of other miscellaneous materials, including, but not limited to, reports, minutes, publication and report manuscripts, scientific papers, and publications are preserved here as well.

Sub-series Description

This sub-series contains the files of IUPAC's Inorganic Chemistry Division. Established in 1949, it concerns itself with matters regarding inorganic chemistry, including isotopes, atomic weights, and the periodic table.

Arranged in its original order (numerically by Commission Number and chronologically by date), the Inorganic Chemistry Division files specifically document the activities of the following two commissions that were either formed or placed under the Inorganic Chemistry Division's oversight:

Sub-series Description

This sub-series contains the files of IUPAC's Organic Chemistry Division. Established in 1949, it worked to promote the goals of IUPAC in the field of organic chemistry. The Organic Chemistry Division was renamed the Organic and Biomolecular Chemistry Division in 1999.

Arranged in its original order (numerically by Commission Number and chronologically by date), the Organic Chemistry Division files specifically document the activities of the following three commissions that were either formed or placed under the Organic Chemistry Division's oversight:

  1. Commission III.1: Nomenclature of Organic Chemistry
  2. Commission III.2: Commission on Chemical Plant Taxonomy
  3. Commission III.3: Photochemistry

Correspondence makes up the bulk of the materials found in the Organic Chemistry Division files. A variety of other miscellaneous materials, including, but not limited to, reports, minutes, articles, and newsletters are preserved here as well.

Sub-series 4. Macromolecular Division (Division IV), undated.
Sub-series Description

This sub-series contains the files of IUPAC's Macromolecular Division. Founded in 1967, this division concerned itself with the science and technology of macromolecules and polymers. The Macromolecular Division was renamed the Polymer Division in 2004.

Note - This sub-series was removed from the collection. Files generated by the Macromolecular Division are preserved in the Addenda to the International Union of Pure and Applied Chemistry (IUPAC) Records.

Sub-series Description

This sub-series contains the files of IUPAC's Analytical Chemistry Division. Established in 1949, it concerns itself with the general aspects of analytical chemistry, including separation methods, spectrochemical methods, electrochemical methods, nuclear chemistry methods, and applications to human health and the environment.

Arranged in its original order, the Analytical Chemistry Division files specifically document the activities of the following six bodies that were formed or placed under the Analytical Chemistry Division's oversight:

  1. Analytical Chemistry Division Committee
  2. Commission V.1: Analytical Reactions and Reagents
  3. Commission V.2: Standardization of Microchemical Techniques
  4. Commission on Analytical Nomenclature
  5. Commission V.6: Equilibrium Data
  6. Commission on Radiochemistry

Correspondence makes up the bulk of the materials found in the Analytical Chemistry Division files. A variety of other miscellaneous materials, including, but not limited to, reports, minutes, scientific papers, and articles are preserved here as well.

Sub-series Description

This sub-series contains the files of IUPAC's Applied Chemistry Division. Established in 1949, it concerned itself with a number of areas of applied chemistry, including food preservation, fermentation, oils and fats, industrial hygiene, wood products, and pollution chemistry. The Applied Chemistry Division was reconstituted and renamed the Chemistry and the Environment Division in 1996.

Arranged in its original order, the files in the Applied Chemistry Division files specifically document the activities of the following seven bodies that were formed or placed under the Applied Chemistry Division's oversight:

  1. Ad Hoc Committee on Applied Chemistry
  2. Commission VI.1: Preservation of Food Products by Chemical Substances
  3. Commission VI.2: Fermentation Industries
  4. Commission VI.3: Oils and Fats
  5. Commission VI.4: Industrial Hygiene
  6. Commission VI.7: Pulp, Paper, and Board
  7. Commission VI.8: Water, Sewage, and Industrial Waste

Correspondence makes up the bulk of the materials found in the Applied Chemistry Division files. A variety of other miscellaneous materials, including, but not limited to, minutes, programs, and reports are preserved here as well.

Series Description

National Adhering Organizations (NAOs) are the national chemistry organizations that represent countries who are members of IUPAC. They play an active role in IUPAC's governance. Each individual member country is represented by a single National Adhering Organization. A National Adhering Organization can be a national chemical council, a national chemical society, a national academy of science, or any other institution or association of institutions representative of national chemical interest.

Arranged in its original order (mostly alphabetical by country and chronologically by date), this series contains IUPAC's Adhering Organizations files. They provide documentation of IUPAC's dealings with its National Adhering Organizations between 1919 and 1971.

Correspondence makes up the bulk of the materials found in the Adhering Organizations files. A few other miscellaneous materials, including conference documents, periodicals, and an example of Japanese calligraphy are preserved here as well.

Series Description

Company Associates are organizations such as industrial companies, research and development institutions, scientific societies, or any other bodies interested in IUPAC's activities, who are associate members of IUPAC. They support IUPAC financially and provide input to IUPAC's Bureau on matters of concern to industry. Within IUPAC, the Company Associates are currently represented by the Committee on Chemistry and Industry.

Arranged in its original chronological order by date, the Company Associates files provide documentation of IUPAC's Company Associate Scheme, through which Company Associates were first admitted to IUPAC's membership in 1969. The contents of the Company Associates files consist of correspondence.

XV. Series XV. Observer Countries, undated.
Series Description

This series contains IUPAC's Observer Countries files. Observer Countries were countries represented in IUPAC by Associate National Adhering Organizations. These countries participated in IUPAC activities but played no role in IUPAC's governance. Each individual Observer Country was represented by a single Associate National Adhering Organization. An Associate National Adhering Organization could be a national chemical council, a national chemical society, a national academy of science, or any other institution or association of institutions representative of national chemical interest. The Observer Countries membership category was discontinued in November 2021.

Note - This series was removed from the collection and retained by IUPAC. A handful of files regarding Observing Countries are preserved in the Addenda to the International Union of Pure and Applied Chemistry (IUPAC) Records.

XVI. Series XVI. Associated Organizations, undated.
Series Description

This series contains IUPAC's Associated Organizations files. Associated Organizations are international chemical organizations whose aims and activities are in harmony with those of IUPAC, who are associate members of IUPAC.

Note - This series was removed from the collection and retained by IUPAC.

Series Description

Arranged in its original order, this series contains IUPAC's General files, which were generated between 1919 and 1973. Boxes 131-133 contain files concerning the following subjects:

  1. Membership of IUPAC Units
  2. International Laboratory of Analytical Chemistry (ILACh)
  3. UNESCO (United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization)
  4. United Nations

Box 134 contains "Miscellaneous" files, which mainly concern the ability/inability to arrange or otherwise direct meetings involving the international community. They include correspondence between IUPAC Secretariat members Jean Gerard, Leo Baekeland, Charles Parsons, and other notables.

Correspondence makes up the largest component of the materials found in the General files. Other miscellaneous materials, including membership documents (drafted at IUPAC's XXVth Council Meeting at Cortina D'Ampezzo, Italy in July 1969), reports, minutes, and United Nations documents are preserved here as well.

Series Description

The International Council of Scientific Unions (ICSU) was a non-governmental organization devoted to international cooperation in the advancement of science. Founded in 1931 as the successor organization to the International Research Council (IRC), its membership was made up of national scientific bodies and international scientific unions. In 2018, the ICSU merged with the International Social Science Council (ISSC) to form the International Science Council (ISC).

IUPAC joined the IRC in 1922 and stayed with the organization when it became the ICSU in 1931. As of January 2022, IUPAC is currently an active member of the ISC.

This series contains IUPAC's International Council of Scientific Unions files. The files in this series mainly document IUPAC's involvement and activities with the ICSU. To a small extent, they also document IUPAC's involvement with ICSU's predecessor, the IRC.

Correspondence and ICSU bulletins make up the largest components of the International Council of Scientific Unions files. Other miscellaneous materials, including reports, memoranda, League of Nations documents, and minutes are preserved here as well.
