Welcome to SynOpen

Open Access Content in the Chemical Sciences

SynOpen is an international, single-anonymized peer-reviewed journal reporting current research results in chemical sciences. It provides the community with open access content, mainly but not exclusively, in the areas of synthesis, catalysis, organometallic chemistry, medicinal chemistry, photochemistry, polymer and materials synthesis. SynOpen offers the opportunity to publish both experimental and theoretical studies as well as to publish scientific primary data. We also publish insightful review articles intended for new researchers as well as specialists in this field.

Main areas covered in SynOpen:

• Synthetic Methodologies
• Asymmetric Synthesis and Catalysis
• Catalytic Methods for Synthesis
• Inorganic and Organometallic Synthesis
• Natural Products Synthesis and Total Synthesis
• Medicinal Chemistry and Drug Design
• Biosynthesis and Biocatalysis
• Synthetic Photochemistry
• Synthetic Electrochemistry
• Solid-state Synthesis
• Polymer Synthesis
• Supramolecular Synthesis and Self-Assembly
• Mechanochemistry
• Automation in Synthesis
• Computational Methods in Synthesis and Machine Learning
• Processing Techniques and Scalability
• Recycling Processes and Sustainable Synthesis

Impact Factor 2022: 2.5
