link to copper;iron;nickel in PubChem is https://pubchem.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/compound/121233900
link to chromium;molybdenum;nickel in PubChem is https://pubchem.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/compound/57434369

the format is not the issue either because copper;nickel works fine

Hi,
The pubchem database is well and truly too big to be installed on your computer; only a small subset (~70000) with defined chemical structures and CAS numbers are included.. Neither of those chemicals, which are alloys anyhow, are in the database.
Cheers,
Caleb

Thanks for the heads up, I don't suppose there's any other way I could use them in that case?
