About the journal

Chemical Science is the global journal for the discovery and reporting of breakthroughs in basic chemical research, communicated to a worldwide audience without barriers, through open access.

We publish findings of exceptional significance from across the chemical sciences – aiming to be the home for only the most cutting-edge solutions to today’s global challenges. In January 2015 we became the world’s first high quality gold open access chemistry journal. Chemical Science is free to read, and free to publish in – with all publication charges paid for by the Royal Society of Chemistry.

Our scope includes:

• organic chemistry • inorganic chemistry• physical chemistry • materials science • nanoscience • catalysis • chemical biology

• analytical chemistry• supramolecular chemistry• theoretical chemistry• computational chemistry• green chemistry• energy and environmental chemistry

We are proud to be a truly international journal, with an editorial board, readership and authorship that span the globe. This global reach ensures high visibility for your work.
