I tried to update https://wiki.contextgarden.net/Chemistry, since nearly
all of the links were dead, and I couldn’t find any documentation about
\chemical / \startchemical.
In the wiki page you can see that there’s still some working code for
chemistry, but it looks very broken.
ppchtex.mkiv is apparently still code from 1996 (and can’t work, since
neither PicTeX nor PStricks are supported in LMTX any more).
chem-str.lua seems to be an updated version by Alan & Hans
Did I miss something?
Hraban

work in progress ... i'm working on that (part of the math upgrade) so
best wait till we're stable

The current code is not very broken - I just used it extensively in a
book that was published. There are many quarks in its conception,
dating from the original MKII model.

But the current syntax is not documented – at least the examples in the
wiki page don’t work any more. Can you fix them?
(I’m not really interested in chemistry myself, I just want to improve
the documentation – and also show, what ConTeXt can do.)
