Accounts of Chemical Research presents short, concise, and critical articles offering easy-to-read overviews of basic research and applications in all areas of chemistry and in allied fields in which chemical approaches play a key role. Each Account focuses on research from the author’s own laboratory, and they are designed to teach the reader about a research project.

Each Account can be thought of as a “seminar in print,” as the authors tell the research story of their lab and give readers insight into both the science itself as well as the people behind it.

Accounts are only considered for publication by invitation, but prospective authors are encouraged to submit a Proposal which, if accepted, will result in an invitation to submit a full Account. The journal considers submissions in core fields such as, but not limited to:

Analytical, physical, inorganic, and organic chemistry
Biological and medicinal chemistry, and biotechnology
Sustainable and environmental chemistry
Computational and theoretical chemistry
Materials and nanoscience
Energy and catalysis
Chemical engineering
Earth, atmospheric and space chemistry
Chemical education
