ChemComm publishes urgent research which is of outstanding significance and interest to experts in the field, while also appealing to the journal’s broad chemistry readership. Our communication format is ideally suited to short, urgent studies that are of such importance that they require accelerated publication.

Our scope covers all topics in chemistry, and research at the interface of chemistry and other disciplines (such as materials science, nanoscience, physics, engineering and biology) where there is a significant novelty in the chemistry aspects.

Major topic areas covered include: 

Analytical Chemistry
Catalysis
Chemical Biology and medicinal chemistry 
Computational Chemistry and Machine Learning
Energy and sustainable chemistry
Environmental Chemistry
Green Chemistry 
Inorganic Chemistry
Materials Chemistry
Nanoscience
Organic Chemistry
Physical Chemistry
Polymer Chemistry
Supramolecular Chemistry
