Heterocyclic Communications

Aims & Scope

Heterocyclic Communications is an open-access, peer-reviewed journal committed to publishing preliminary communications, research articles, and reviews on significant developments in all phases of heterocyclic chemistry, including general synthesis, natural products, computational analysis, considerable biological activity and inorganic ring systems. It is poised to captivate a diverse readership across the fields of chemistry, biology, and biotechnology, including scholars who would like to gain profound insights into the latest scientific breakthroughs, as well as non-scholarly readers, who seek to expand their knowledge and deepen their understanding with reference to the newest discoveries in the field of science. Heterocyclic Communications assures the top quality of published data through critical peer-review and editorial involvement throughout the entire publication process. Clear presentation of experimental and computational data is strongly emphasized. Thanks to the Open Access model, it also offers unrestricted access to published articles for all users. The published content includes research articles, review articles, and preliminary communications. The journal aims to facilitate the communication and collaboration of scientists across different countries. Heterocyclic chemistry is a rapidly growing field. By some estimates original research papers in heterocyclic chemistry have increased to more than 60% of the current organic chemistry literature published. This explosive growth is even greater when considering heterocyclic research published in materials science, physical, biophysical, analytical, bioorganic, pharmaceutical, medicinal and natural products journals. There is a need, therefore, for a journal dedicated explicitly to heterocyclic chemistry and the properties of heterocyclic compounds. The scope of Heterocyclic Communications is covers scholarly research in: Development of novel synthetic methods Significant improvement of known synthetic methods Chemistry of natural products Superior biological activity of novel heterocyclic compounds, rational design and synthesis of new drug candidates targeting specific biological receptors Application of heterocyclic compounds as probes for biomolecules in biophysical and bioanalytical chemistry Development of new substrates and catalysts in materials chemistry
