Chemistry: Journals

The American Chemical Society (ACS) publishes 38 journals and magazines covering all aspects of the science of chemistry. Index and abstract information is available for all of these publications. Full text is available for 33 of the titles. With the exception of Chemical and Engineering News, all of the ACS journals are scholarly, peer-reviewed publications oriented toward senior or higher level readers. Nevertheless, several of the journals have sections of non-scholarly articles of possible interest. The ACS journals are only a starting point for any chemistry search. Only Chemical Abstracts; Scifinder Scholar (see the DATABASES tab) provides complete coverage of chemistry. Only for City College students, faculty and staff.

The Royal Society of Chemistry (RSC) publishes 19 journals covering a full range of topics in chemistry. Full text is available for 13 of these journals plus their predecessor titles; tables of contents and abstracts are available for the other 6. All of the RSC journals are scholarly, peer-reviewed publications oriented toward senior or higher level researchers. The RSC journals are only a starting point for any chemistry search. Only Chemical Abstracts; Scifinder Scholar (see the DATABASES tab) provides complete coverage of chemistry. Only for City College students, faculty and staff.

Science Citation Index Expanded includes most of the major chemistry journals. However, this database is only a starting point for any chemistry search, because only Chemical Abstracts; Scifinder Scholar (see the DATABASES tab) provides in-depth indexing and complete coverage of all fields of chemistry. Science Citation Index features the ability to do citation searching. Only for City College students, faculty and staff.

This preprint server, serving the global chemistry community, is co-owned, and managed by world’s leading chemical societies; American Chemical Society, German Chemical Society, Royal Society of Chemistry, Chemical Society of Japan, and Chinese Chemical Society. Here is an opportunity to get your work rapidly publicized and seen. Also, unlike most scholarly journals, you can contribute negative or failed results to save valuable time for other researchers. Nearly all scholarly chemistry journals will accept for publication preprints posted here. But authors should always check the instructions for authors for the specific journal they are considering. Here is a list of other preprint servers: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_preprint_repositories/

A searchable database of the tables of contents of many of the leading scholarly journals in all subject areas.

Wiley InterScience is a database consisting of journals, reference works, and online books. All subject areas are covered including some important chemistry journals. Please note that you cannot determine in advance whether or not a journal is available in full text unless you check the E Journals A to Z link on the CCNY Library Research Resources by Subject page. The Wiley chemistry journals are only a starting point for any chemistry search. Only Chemical Abstracts; Scifinder Scholar (see the DATABASES tab) provides complete coverage of chemistry. Only for City College students, faculty and staff.

Open access and open minded – the Beilstein Magazine offers a platform for essays and interviews with interdisciplinary content, stimulating ideas and fruitful discussions. It is designed for open-minded scientists – from natural sciences and humanities – who are interested in crossing traditional subject boundaries.
