Dear Rajarshi and Dear All,
Thanks for the offer. Some comments:
(1) what license or copyright apply to any of these sets. It can be
difficult to re-use or redictribute data that are encumbered by
license or other restrictions. And the absence of any license can be
just as difficult!
http://www.qsarworld.com/qsar-datasets.php?mm=5 (which manually
curated about 40 additional datasets from literature - this website
also has a list of links to related database directories.)
(2) some of these data sets have fairly minimal markup in the actual
files (e.g. <ACTIVITY>) To know what this is one has to read the
paper. The paper itself is often closed, so essentially the metadata
is not Open.
