About This Journal

The Journal of Applied Chemistry is a Wiley Academic gold open-access publication dedicated to applied and translational research in chemistry. The journal covers organic synthesis, catalysis, polymer chemistry, electrochemistry, medicinal chemistry, and green chemistry. Unlike purely theoretical chemistry journals, it places a strong emphasis on the practical application and commercial relevance of chemical research. It is read by academic chemists, industrial researchers, and chemical engineers seeking innovative approaches to real-world chemical challenges.

Aims & Scope

The journal publishes original research and reviews at the interface of chemistry and practical application:

• Synthetic organic chemistry: total synthesis, methodology development, and asymmetric catalysis
• Catalysis: homogeneous, heterogeneous, and enzymatic catalysis; reaction mechanisms and kinetics
• Polymer and materials chemistry: synthesis, characterisation, and functional applications
• Medicinal chemistry: drug design, structure–activity relationships, and lead optimisation
• Electrochemistry: electrosynthesis, electroanalysis, fuel cells, and energy storage
• Green and sustainable chemistry: atom economy, solvent-free reactions, biocatalysis, and flow chemistry
• Analytical chemistry: novel sensing materials, detection methods, and analytical platforms

All submitted work must clearly demonstrate the applied significance of the chemistry presented.
