Aims & Scope

Aims

Compounds (ISSN 2673-6918) is an international, peer-reviewed, open-access journal on compounds research. It publishes reviews, original research papers, communications, letters, and short notes. Manuscripts dealing with chemical compounds; the relationship between the structure, the properties, or the functions of all kinds of compounds; as well as chemical theory and applications are welcome. Our aim is to encourage scientists to publish their theoretical and experimental results in as much detail as possible. There is no restriction on the maximum length of the papers. Full experimental and/or methodical details must be provided.

Scope

The scope of Compounds includes but is not limited to the following subjects:

• Synthesis and characterization of organic/inorganic compounds
• Properties of organic/inorganic compounds (including mechanical, thermal, structural, electric, magnetic and optical properties)
• Physical inorganic chemistry/physical organic chemistry (including thermodynamics, kinetics, mechanisms, reactivity)
• Coordination chemistry
• Organometallic chemistry
• Intermetallic compounds, metallic materials and alloys
• Solid-state chemistry (including bonding, crystal chemistry, high-pressure processes, magnetic and optical properties and characterization, surfaces, structural studies and transport phenomena)
• Natural products (including isolation, identification and properties)
• Materials (including synthesis, characterization and applications of magnetic materials, optical materials, intermetallic compounds, metallic materials and alloys)
• Compounds for Energy Application
• Catalysis (homogeneous, heterogeneous and microheterogeneous)
• Theory and computation
• Simulation and modeling
