  7. Scientific Editors: Editor-in-Chief: Prof. C. Dale Poulter, University of Utah Senior Editor: Prof. Cynthia J. Burrows, University of Utah Associate Editors: Prof. Robert K. Boeckman, University of Rochester Prof. Carsten Bolm, Aachen University Prof. David B. Collum, Cornell University Prof. Daniel L. Comins, North Carolina State University Prof. Jacqueline Gervay-Hague, U. California-Davis Prof. Dawei Ma, Shanghai Institute of Organic Chemistry Prof. Robert J. McMahon, University of Wisconsin Prof. Albert Padwa, Emory University Prof. Scott Rychnovsky, U. California-Irvine Prof. Daniel A. Singleton, Texas A & M University Staff Editors: Coordinating Editor: Ms. Shawn Darby Data Analyst: Dr. Peter Harvey (PhD organic chemistry) Editorial Assistants: Ms. Katie Turner + several more at editors’ sites Contact us: joc@chem.utah.edu The Journal of Organic Chemistry is #1 in total citations in the field of Organic Chemistry with 91,163 cites in 2010.

  8. Scope: all areas of organic chemistry including synthesis, natural products, reaction mechanisms, bioorganic, organometallic, organic materials, theory and supramolecular chemistry. Research should be appropriate for the readership of JOC. Manuscript types: Articles: full papers that describe a complete story Notes: concise accounts describing novel observations, new methods of wide applicability or interest, or focused studies of general interest. NOT communications. NOT preliminary. Perspectives: personal overviews of specialized research areas by acknowledged experts – are published only by invitation of the Editor-in-Chief. NEW!! Brief Communications: short accounts of preliminary results of unusual novelty and urgency that justify immediate disclosure. Typically 2 pages of text + experimental. Manuscripts declined as communications cannot be resubmitted as Notes to JOC or as Letters to Organic Letters. JOCSynopses: brief focused reviews of current topics of interest to organic chemists written by active researchers that include work from their own laboratories. Typically by invitation.

  9. Journal of Physical Chemistry Related journals: JACS, JCTC, Langmuir, Nano Lett, ACS Nano, AMI, Chem. Mat., etc.

  10. Journal of Physical Chemistry A: • Dynamics, Clusters, Excited states • Kinetics, Spectroscopy • Atmospheric, Environmental and Green Chemistry • Molecular Structure, Quantum Chemistry, General Theory • Journal of Physical Chemistry B: • Macromolecules, Soft Matter • Surfactants, Membranes • Statistical Mechanics, Thermodynamics, Medium Effects • Biophysical Chemistry • Journal of Physical Chemistry C: • Nanoparticles and Nanostructures • Surfaces, Interfaces, Catalysis • Electron Transport, Optical and Electronic Devices, Hard Matter • Energy Conversion and Storage • Journal of Physical Chemistry Letters covers all topic areas included in Journal of Physical Chemistry A, B, and C. Organizational Structure

  11. How to choose where to publish research? • Match with the scope of the journal • Which journal is likely to lead to the most readers of the paper? • Is there urgency to the publication? Which journal is likely to give the fastest processing • Issues of paper length (letters format versus regular paper) • 5. Do the coauthors of the paper agree on what should be done?

  12. How to prepare and publish a paper First thing to do is look at the ACS Pub Web site:http://pubs.acs.org All the journals are listed, and each has a click button entitled: “Submission and Review” Under this is “Information for Authors”. For JPC, you’ll find detailed instructions in a pdf file: http://pubs.acs.org/paragonplus/submission/jpchax/jpchax_authguide.pdf For JOC: http://pubs.acs.org/paragonplus/submission/joceah/joceah_authguide.pdf

  13. Submission and Review After the paper is prepared, go to the Paragon Plus site https://acs.manuscriptcentral.com/acs and submit. Here you get to suggest possible reviewers for your manuscript. Shortly after submission, an editor will be assigned. Also, you might get some email which requests additional information, or in some cases revisions to what you have submitted so that it can be processed. Papers judged to be in the wrong field or are too routine may be rejected at this stage. The editor then assigns reviewers. Usually it takes about 4-6 weeks to get the reviews back. The editor looks things over, and then makes a decision (accept, reject, revise). Sometimes additional reviewing is done, but typically a paper doesn’t go through more than one round of reviews.* If the paper is accepted, then shortly thereafter proofs will appear. This is the last time that any changes can be made. Other issues: Journal Publishing Agreement Just Accepted Manuscripts ACS Author Choice (relates to Open Access Publishing) *JOC sends many manuscripts for re-review when the reviewer has requested “major revisions”.

  14. Additional criteria for JOC (and OL): The Compound Characterization Checklist:

  15. Tips for Submission and Review: • Follow the guidelines • Your manuscript may be unsubmitted if you haven’t read and followed the guidelines. (e.g. compound characterization, word or page limits, failure to provide information about other manuscripts). • Suggest good reviewers • Experts on the subject who would find your work interesting. (Not at the same institution, not close collaborators, not just your friends from grad school.) • Reviewing is a global process—anyone with scientific credentials and an email address might review your manuscript. • Don’t take it personally when you get a negative review • Editors balance the written comments with the reviewer’s background to arrive at a decision. • Trying to guess who the reviewer was is unproductive. • Use the reviews to guide you to a positive experience next time.
