CHEMICAL DATABASE 1

Scientific journal In academic publishing, a scientific journal is a periodical publication intended to further the progress of science, usually by reporting new research. The history of scientific journals dates from 1665, when the French Journal des scavance and the English Philosophical Transactions of the Royal Society first began systematically publishing research results. 2

Impact factor (IF) The impact factor (IF) is a measure of the citation to science journals. It is frequently used as a proxy for the importance of a journal to its field. The Impact factor was devised by Eugene Garfield, the founder of the Institute for Scientific Information, now part of Thomson, a large worldwide US-based publisher. 10

Calculation The impact factor of a journal is calculated based on a two-year period. For example, the 2003 impact factor of a journal would be calculated as follows: A = the number of times articles published in 2001 -2 were cited in indexed journals during 2003 B = the number of "citable items" (usually articles, reviews, proceedings or notes; not editorials and letters-to-the-Editor) published in 2001 -2 2003 impact factor = A/B (note that the 2003 impact factor was actually published in 2004, because it could not be calculated until all of the 2003 publications had been received). 11

Types of articles • Articles or Original Paper are usually between five and twenty pages and are complete descriptions of current original research findings. • Letters or communications are short descriptions of important current research findings which are usually fast-tracked for immediate publication because they are considered urgent. • Review articles do not cover original research but rather accumulate the results of many different articles on a particular topic into a coherent narrative about the state of the art in that field. Chemical Reviews, Chemical Society Review, Coordination Chemistry Reviews, …. • Notes are short descriptions of current research findings which are considered less urgent or important than Letters 13
