I recently published two Compound Lookup extensions for Safari and Chrome both of which have been downloaded over 100 times.

They allow you so select a drug name in a web page (for example), right-click and from the dropdown menu there is the option to choose either PubChem or ChEMBL as shown below. Compound Lookup turns any compound name on a web page into a structure and a set of database identifiers, without leaving the page.

The ID lookup uses UniChem as the data source and the results from 5 resources are displayed. The plugin actually first searches PubChem to get the structure and the InChiKey, then uses the InChiKey to get the other identifiers.

However, UniChem actually has 25 different resources and they are all described here https://www.ebi.ac.uk/unichem/sources. If you would prefer to access different datasources the unichem.js can be modified
