Talk:Chromium(III) nicotinate

This page focuses on the commercial aspects not factual information about the substance in question. The companies involved are hoping for free advertising. (This unsigned comment was added by User:67.161.113.157 on 2010-05-05 at 20:55:03.)

I agree. The problem, however, is that for many compounds and products used in natural health foods and supplements, very little "neutral" scientific information is available. It seems that most information available (online, at the very least) is commercial. I work as graphic designer for one natural health food/supplement manufacturer; my scientific spirit makes me research most of what I do (research is NOT part of my job), and not just contempt myself with the little information I get from in-office sources. There were a few other instances where I could not find any scientific information whatsoever, just commercial stuff. There is even a case where I have no clue if it was a typo or not: some product mentions "withanolides", which I suppose should be typed "with anolides" as two words, but I couldn't find information on "anolides" anyhow... Very frustrating! CielProfond (talk) 17:45, 24 November 2010 (UTC)

Molecular structure graphic
The graphic for this molecular structure appears to be incorrect and should be edited or retracted. The dotted line bonds between the Chromium ion and the nitrogen atoms would require and incredible amount of ring strain. More likely, if there are any of that type of bonds present, it would be with the Chromium ions from other molecules. It would be nice if someone could find crystallographic data and/or molecular computational data that would indicate the true nature of this material. — Preceding unsigned comment added by ChemW (talk • contribs) 21:43, 7 December 2017 (UTC)
