Aims and Scope

Angewandte Chemie is a journal of the German Chemical Society (GDCh). With an excellent Impact Factor of 16.9 (2024 Journal Citation Reports, Clarivate, 2025), the journal is maintaining its leading position among scholarly journals with a focus on general chemistry. It appears weekly in a highly optimized, reader-friendly format; new articles appear online almost every day. Founded in 1887, Angewandte Chemie is one of the prime chemistry journals in the world today. Moreover, it is the only journal in the field delivering a stimulating mixture of Review-type articles, Highlights, Communications, and Research Articles weekly.

Review-type articles summarize important recent research on topical subjects across all branches of chemistry, they provide an overview of unresolved problems, and they discuss possible developments. To contribute a Review, Minireview, or Highlight, please contact our editorial office in the first instance so that our team may assess the suitability of the proposal. Unsolicited submissions cannot be considered at this time. 

Communications and Research Articles are selected critically and report on the latest research results, making the journal indispensable to chemists who want to stay well informed.
