Does anyone know of a modern (post-1985 or so) compilation of
thermochemical data (standard enthalpies and free energies of formation)
for molecules of biochemical interest?  Even the latest textbooks on my
shelf refer to rather ancient primary sources (e.g. the tables in
Tinoco, Sauer and Wang, 3rd ed., 1995 are derived from compilations made
in 1958 and 1969!).  Surely someone has created such a compilation in
the last 15 years!

Sincerely,
