Chemical Society Reviews is a biweekly peer-reviewed scientific journal published by the Royal Society of Chemistry, for review articles on topics of current interest in chemistry. Its predecessors were Quarterly Reviews, Chemical Society (1947–1971) and Royal Institute of Chemistry, Reviews (1968–1971); it maintained its current title since 1972. According to the Journal Citation Reports, the journal has a 2023 impact factor of 40.4.[1] The current editor-in-chief (chair of editorial board) is Jennifer Love (University of Calgary).
Chemical Society Reviews publishes occasional themed issues on new and emerging areas of research in the chemical sciences. These issues are edited by a guest editor who is a specialist in their field. Since 2005, Chemical Society Reviews has published reviews on topics of broad appeal, termed "social interest" reviews, such as articles on art conservation, forensics, and automotive fuels.
The journal is abstracted and indexed in PubMed/MEDLINE, Scopus,[2] and UGC.
