Quality, reach and influence are all important factors in choosing the best journal for your research.
A broad spectrum of metrics and measures, combined with a journal’s scope and ethos, offers a meaningful way to decide, and the following information is based on what you – our authors, readers and librarian colleagues – have told us is most important to you in making that decision.
Journal metrics explained
Our journals are advancing science and furthering knowledge, which ultimately benefits our global society.
We achieve this through the volume, reach and quality of our content, and building trust with the community we serve.

Below are the range of metrics and measures we use to demonstrate the quality and impact of our journals.
Volume
The volume of high-quality content we publish in our journals increases the potential for realising impact and helps ensure our journals are accessible to authors across the full breadth of the chemical sciences.
Article submissions
The number of submissions to a journal in the given calendar year.
Chemical Society Reviews and Natural Product Reports have a pre-submission approval process; submission numbers include approved synopses only.
Article publications
The number of editorials and peer-reviewed articles published in issues during the given year.
Reach
We want to ensure that our journal content reaches the right people – so it is seen by those who it is most relevant and will make effective use of it. Citation-based measures give a good indication of reach.
2-year Impact Factor
The yearly average number of citations of articles published in the last two years in a specific journal.
The 2-year Impact Factor is calculated by dividing all citations to the journal in the given year to items published in the previous two years, divided by the total number of scholarly items (articles, reviews, and proceedings) published in the journal in the previous two years.
For example, the 2020 2-year Impact Factor refers to the number of citations received in 2020 to items published in 2018-2019, divided by the number of scholarly items published in 2018-2019

5-year Impact Factor
The yearly average number of citations of articles published in the last five years in a specific journal.
The 5-year Impact Factor is calculated by dividing all citations to the journal in the given year to items published in the previous five years, divided by the total number of scholarly items (articles, reviews, and proceedings) published in the journal in the previous five years.
For example, the 2020 5-year Impact Factor refers to the number of citations received in 2020 to items published in 2015-2019, divided by the number of scholarly items published in 2015-2019.
Source: Clarivate Journal Citation Reports
CiteScore™
The average number of citations a scholarly item published within the given or previous three years has received during the same time period, divided by the number of scholarly items published over the same time period.
For example, the 2020 CiteScore refers to the number of citations scholarly items published in 2017-2020 received in 2017-2020, divided by the number of scholarly items published in 2017-2020.

Best Impact Factor Category Quartile
Clarivate Journal Citation Reports categorise journals into scientific categories, once ranked by 2-year Impact Factor from high to low the journals are split into quartiles, with Q1 being the upper-most quartile. For journals included in more than one Science Citation Index Expanded™ (SCIE) category, the best quartile and category is listed.

Trust
Authors and readers can trust the content in our journals. We combine quality with fast publication, provide comprehensive open access options and we are clear and transparent about the range of peer review models available to authors.
Time to first decision (all decisions)
The median time from manuscript submission to the first decision including rejects without peer review. For submissions with a decision in the previous calendar year.
For Chemical Society Reviews and Natural Product Reports times to first decision refer to full manuscripts submitted following pre-approval as a synopsis.
Time to first decision (peer reviewed only)
The median time from submission to the first decision for submissions that underwent peer review only. For submissions with a decision in the previous calendar year.
Open Access
Find out more about open access at the 欧美AV.
Peer Review Model
Single-anonymised: reviewers are anonymous and author names and affiliations are known to reviewers.
Double-anonymised: both the authors’ and reviewers’ identities are anonymous (opt in at submission).
Transparent: the editor’s decision letter, reviewers’ comments, and authors’ response for all versions of the manuscript are published alongside the article (opt in at any point prior to acceptance).
