There are research classification systems for mathematics (MSC) and physics (PACS and subsequently PhySH) which help the researchers to navigate through codes composed by letters/numbers made by associations that specialise in those pieces of human knowledge. Are there any classification systems of research in chemistry?

$\begingroup$ I'm not sure if it counts as a classification system, but SciFinder can be used to filter research papers based on many criteria. Each chemical has a CAS number as well. $\endgroup$– AkashJul 10 at 15:46
