59. JACS Communication

60. JACS Communication

61. JACS Communication

62. JACS Communication
Communications are restricted to reports of unusual urgency, timeliness, significance, and broad interest. A brief statement explaining how the manuscript meets the criteria of urgency and significance should be included in the author’s cover letter. It is desirable that the principal conclusions be stated in the opening sentences of the manuscript. Additionally, a separate abstract must be included in the manuscript for use in reviewing and for publication in the Web edition of JACS.
The submission of multiple Communications on the same or closely related topics within a short period of time is not an acceptable means of publishing a body of work that is too large for a single Communication. Such work should be described in the format of an Article.
The major concepts must not have appeared previously as a report or publication (e.g., published lecture or news release, electronic journal paper or preprint, symposium proceedings, or an extended abstract such as Polymer Preprints). If a previous Communication by the same author(s) has already appeared and the present manuscript describes a technical improvement or increase in the scope of the work, it will not be accepted in the absence of a novel conceptual advance.

63. JACS Articles
Articles most appropriate for publication in JACS are those that deal with some phase of “pure” chemistry as distinguished from “applied” chemistry. Because of restrictions on the number of published pages in the Journal, not all manuscripts that describe well-executed work can be accepted. Articles of high scientific quality, originality, significance, and conceptual novelty that are of interest to the wide and diverse contemporary readership of JACS will be given priority for publication. Articles on methodology should include one or more applications of widespread interest and, unless significant new advances are announced, will be declined with the recommendation for submission to specialized journals. Papers that draw conclusions from the treatment of existing data must also include significant new data and make new experimental or theoretical predictions of broad interest. Articles which mainly expand findings that were previously published as Communications in JACS or elsewhere and which only incorporate experimental data, without greatly expanded scope and without providing new insights or conceptual breakthroughs, will be declined. Articles that are mainly routine extensions of previously published related work will also be declined with the recommendation for submission to more specialized journals.

64. JACS Communication

65. Angwandte Communication 1/2
Communications are short notes on experimental and/or theoretical studies in all branches of chemistry. The results must be of general interest or at least contribute to the development of an important area of research. The essential findings presented in a Communication or significant parts of them may not already have appeared in print or in electronic online systems (for example, in online resources, in reviews, proceedings, or preprints). Contributions that are too specialized for the general readership of Angewandte Chemie will be returned to the authors without further external review (ca. 25%). All other Communications are sent to two independent referees. Authors are welcome to suggest referees.
Communications that are "very important" in the opinion of at least two referees are denoted as being a VIP (very important paper) upon publication. If a third referee’s report is however received that does note judge the work to be "very important" or "highly important", the communication does not receive this VIP status. Please be considerate to our many readers for whom English is a foreign language—use a simple, clear style and avoid jargon.

66. Angwandte Communication 2/2
Length: The maximal length of a Communication, inclusive of all literature citations, footnotes, and tables, is characters; formulas and figures may be added. Longer Communications will be accepted only if their quality warrants special consideration and a written justification of their length is provided. Details that are of importance to the referees and to specialists, but not to most of the readers, should be submitted as Supporting Information, which will be made accessible on the Web. Copies of cited publications not yet available publicly should be submitted along with the manuscript. Unpublished results and lectures should only be cited for exceptional reasons.
The identity and purity of all new compounds must be fully characterized by appropriate analytical methods (NMR spectroscopy, X-ray crystal structure analysis, elemental analysis, etc.). These data should be given in the Supporting Information in the event that they exceed the scope of the Experimental Section.

67. Angewandte Review Articles
Review articles should be written by leading experts and deal with topics of high current interest in any area of chemistry. Rather than an assembly of detailed information with a complete literature survey, a critically selected treatment of the material is desired; unsolved problems and possible developments should also be discussed.
Reviews should be divided into numbered sections, as in this "Notice to Authors". Cross-references in the text should also use these section numbers. The Review starts with a lead-in (1000 characters, no references). This text should not be a mere summary but rather should—together with a round picture 18.5 cm in diameter (frontispiece)—arouse the readers' interest. The first section of the Review itself, the Introduction, should primarily introduce the nonspecialist to the subject in as clear a way as possible. A Review should conclude with a section entitled Summary and Outlook, in which the achievements of and new challenges for the subject are presented succinctly. In addition, biographical sketches (maximum length 560 characters) and portrait-quality black-and-white photographs of the correspondence authors should be submitted.
Length: A review should not be of more than 65000 characters, including footnotes, literature citations, tables, and legends. If a longer article is planned, the agreement of the editor should be sought as early as possible.

68. Angewandte Review Articles

71. Angewandte Mini-Review
A Minireview (up to 25000 characters) should present current topics in a concise review style. Minireviews offer the flexibility to treat topics at a time, and in a suitable manner, when a Review would still be premature or inappropriate. The format is the same as that outlined for Reviews in Section 2.1; however, Minireviews do not have a frontispiece and the lead-in should be no longer than 800 characters.
Angewandte Essays
Essays (up to 15000 characters) themes from every aspect of chemistry, including the philosophy or history of science, are addressed freely. Use of unpublished results from original research should be extremely limited. Primarily, known topics should be discussed illuminatingly and critically from a new vantage point, and they should be suitably illustrated. In addition, a biographical sketch (maximum length 560 characters) and a portrait-quality black-and-white photograph of the correspondence author should be submitted.

72. Angewandte Highlights
In Highlights very important new results of original research should be described, in general by a third person, with a view to instruct and to highlight their significance. The results should be presented clearly, but as succinctly as possible, without the comprehensive details required for an original article. Highlights should include only essential formulas and figures as well as not more than 15 references. A Highlight should not be longer than two pages (up to 8500 characters). To ensure that your manuscript does not exceed this length, please use the template, which can be found in the section "For Authors" of the homepage.
