Wiley-VCH, the German subsidiary of John Wiley & Sons, US, has announced that the Israel Journal of Chemistry has become part of its chemical society portfolio, effective from 2010. Wiley-VCH acquired the journal in late 2009, coinciding with the 50th anniversary of the start of official Israeli-German science relationships after World War II.
The Israel Journal of Chemistry is the official journal of the Israel Chemical Society, and is celebrating the publication of its 50th volume in 2010. Issue 1/2010 was recently published and is devoted to ribosome chemistry, honoring Professors Venkatraman Ramakrishnan, Thomas Steitz and Ada Yonath, 2009 Nobel Laureates in chemistry.
The international, peer-reviewed journal publishes topical issues, each of which is edited by Guest Editors and primarily contains invited Review articles. Upcoming issues will cover organic electrochemistry (honoring Professor Allen J. Bard, 2008 Wolf Prize Recipient), nanotubes & nanostructures, and metal-catalysed cross-coupling reactions. The journal's Editorial Board consists of 12 renowned Israeli chemists. Of the International Advisory Board’s 30 prestigious members, 18 are Nobel Laureates.
Originally a quarterly, the Israel Journal of Chemistry will publish six issues both in print and online (www.ijc.wiley-vch.de) in 2010. Individual articles will be published online as EarlyView articles prior to full issue publication. For authors who wish to make their articles freely available online, the journal offers the OnlineOpen option.
