That's an interesting table... not Open it seems... did you ask permission (and get) permission to redistribute under a free license, perhaps? The list is not overly long, and InChIs could be added manually, though one would have to assume the compound names (btw, some are compound classses!) are unique... PubChem also has links to MeSH terms, and I also see a MeSH term in the ChemBox on WikiPedia... that would be open data, and could provide similary information. I have been pondering about setting up open source semantic wiki to linking data, where there is no Open source for that available, but have not had time for that yet.
