About Journal

International Journal of Chemistry (IJC) is an international, double-anonymized peer-reviewed, open-access journal published semiannually (May and November) by the Canadian Center of Science and Education. IJC publishes original, full-length articles reflecting the latest research and developments in theoretical and practical aspects of chemistry.

Focus and Scope

International Journal of Chemistry publishes rigorous research on chemical substances, transformations, measurements, mechanisms, and applications. Its scope includes analytical, inorganic, organic, physical, theoretical and computational, environmental, green and sustainable, materials, nuclear, polymer, biological, and neurochemistry, together with electrochemistry and chemical biology. Work at disciplinary interfaces is welcome when chemistry remains the principal source of novelty. Original research must formulate a chemical question and provide evidence appropriate to the claimed structure, reaction, property, mechanism, or method. Synthetic and materials papers should connect composition and structure to chemical behavior or function. Computational studies require theoretical justification, reproducible methods, and validation against experiment or accepted benchmarks. Methods articles must establish analytical or synthetic performance and practical limitations. Critical and systematic reviews should use transparent selection principles and produce an evaluative synthesis. Chemistry-education studies are eligible when they test a defined learning question and contribute to chemistry pedagogy rather than report classroom satisfaction alone. The journal excludes routine characterization, descriptive environmental or clinical assays, unsupported molecular docking, and engineering or biomedical applications in which the chemical contribution is incidental.
