In addition to communications, the journal has expanded its scope to include Full length papers as well as Review articles in rapidly developing fields.Launched in January 1998, Inorganic Chemistry Communications is an international journal dedicated to the rapid publication of short communications in the major areas of inorganic, organometallic and supramolecular chemistry. Topics include synthetic and reaction chemistry, kinetics and mechanisms of reactions, bioinorganic chemistry, photochemistry and the use of metal and organometallic compounds in stoichiometric and catalytic synthesis or organic compounds.Papers merely reporting X-ray structural data will not be considered. Inorganic Chemistry Communications publishes occasional concise reviews.Benefits to authors We also provide many author benefits, such as free PDFs, a liberal copyright policy, special discounts on Elsevier publications and much more.

The International Inorganic Chemistry JournalInorganica Chimica Acta is an established international forum for all aspects of advanced Inorganic Chemistry. Original papers of high scientific level and interest are published in the form of Articles and Reviews. Topics covered include:• chemistry of the main group elements and the d- and f-block metals, including the synthesis, characterization and reactivity of coordination, organometallic, biomimetic, supramolecular coordination compounds, including associated computational studies;• synthesis, physico-chemical properties, applications of molecule-based nano-scaled clusters and nanomaterials designed using the principles of coordination chemistry, as well as coordination polymers (CPs), metal-organic frameworks (MOFs), metal-organic polyhedra (MPOs);• reaction mechanisms and physico-chemical investigations computational studies of metalloenzymes and their models;• applications of inorganic compounds, metallodrugs and molecule-based materials.Papers composed primarily of structural reports will typically not be considered for publication.Benefits to authors We also provide many author benefits, such as free PDFs, a liberal copyright policy, special discounts on Elsevier publications and much more.

The Journal of Organometallic Chemistry targets original papers (Articles) dealing with theoretical aspects, structural chemistry, synthesis, physical and chemical properties (including reaction mechanisms), and practical applications of organometallic compounds.Organometallic compounds are defined as compounds that contain significant metal - carbon interactions. The term metal includes all alkali and alkaline earth metals, all transition metals and the lanthanides and actinides in the Periodic Table. Metalloids including the elements in Group 13 and the heavier members of the Groups 14 - 16 are also included. The term chemistry includes syntheses, characterizations and reaction chemistry of all such compounds. Research reports based on use of organometallic complexes in bioorganometallic chemistry, medicine, material sciences, homogeneous catalysis and energy conversion are also welcome.New Directions.In recent years chemistry has been moving toward the study of larger and more complex molecules and materials. Studies of organometallic compounds are also growing in size and complexity and in their applications. Today, much research is being focused on nanoscale chemicals and materials. Going forward the Journal of Organometallic Chemistry is now going to include reports in these new areas. Areas that have been recognized as important in these new directions include: Bioorganometallic chemistry, Nanoscale organometallics, Organometallic Polymers and Macromolecules and Metal Nanoparticles for Catalysis and Electrocatalysis and Organometallic Materials with novel physical and photo-properties.Bioorganometallics include compounds and materials that have the potential for important bioactivities including antibiotics, anticancer, antimicrobials, antivirals, antimalarials and cytotoxicity and other drug treatment areas.Nanoscale Organometallics include metal compounds, clusters and metal nanoparticles combined with nanocarbon materials including polycyclic aromatics, buckyballs and fullerenes, carbon nanotubes, nanographenes and graphene oxides and -nitrides.Metal Nanoparticles for Catalysis and Electrocatalysis include metal nanoparticles on nanocarbon supports have been shown to exhibit interesting properties for the catalytic synthesis of organic compounds including the oxidation and reduction of important small molecules. Organometallic Polymers and Macromolecules. Interest in organometallic polymers with the metal atoms embedded in the polymer and metal-containing groups supported on carbon chains. Some organometallic polymers exhibit photo-properties that may be useful in the development of solar cells or other photo applications.The scope of the journal has been enlarged to encompass important research on organometallic complexes in bioorganometallic chemistry and material sciences, and of heavier main group elements in organometallic chemistry. The journal also publishes review articles, short communications and notes.Benefits to authors We also provide many author benefits, such as free PDFs, a liberal copyright policy, special discounts on Elsevier publications and much more.
