Best Chemistry Journals for General Chemistry

Journals are ranked according to a proprietary bibliometric score developed by Research.com, which is calculated based on two critical metrics: the estimated h-index and the number of leading scientists who have endorsed each journal over the most recent three-year period. This rigorous methodology ensures a balanced and credible assessment of each journal's impact and influence within the General Chemistry community.

The Impact Score values included within this ranking were gathered as of 2024-11-27, underpinning the relevancy and timeliness of the data. The ranking process entailed an exhaustive examination of over 581 journals, which were carefully selected following a detailed review of more than 396,689 scientific documents published in the preceding three years. This process included in-depth evaluation by an esteemed cohort of 47,860 leading and respected scientists specializing in General Chemistry.
