The Royal Society of Chemistry has announced that its publishing portfolio has once again shown outstanding excellence, with the publication of the latest Impact Factors (IF) report from Thomson Reuters. Six out of the top 20 multidisciplinary chemistry journals are published by the RSC.
The RSC reportedly has more journals than any other publisher in the top 20 for 5-year impact factors, demonstrating that the society is consistently publishing high quality research. Altogether, more than 30 percent of RSC journals have an IF greater than 5.000, and more than a quarter of the RSC's journals are in the top 10 percent of their ISI category.
Natural Product Reports came out top in both the 'Chemistry: Medicinal' and 'Chemistry: Organic' categories with a figure of 10.178. Other individual journal highlights include: Energy & Environmental Science (11.653), Chemical Science (8.314), Green Chemistry (6.828) and Chemical Communications (6.378).
