Journal of Heterocyclic Chemistry (JHC)
Journal Descriptions
The Journal of Heterocyclic Chemistry publishes research in all fields of heterocyclic organic chemistry. The scope covers all aspects of heterocyclic compounds, including synthesis methods, reaction mechanisms, physical organic chemistry, photophysical properties, and applications in total synthesis, catalysis, drug discovery, and materials science. The Journal of Heterocyclic Chemistry is interested in publishing research on all aspects of heterocyclic chemistry, especially development and application of efficient synthetic methodologies and strategies for the synthesis of various heterocyclic compounds. In addition, Journal of Heterocyclic Chemistry promotes research in other areas that contribute to heterocyclic synthesis/application, such as synthesis design, reaction techniques, flow chemistry and continuous processing, multiphase catalysis, green chemistry, catalyst immobilization and recycling. A heterocyclic compound is defined as any organic compound where the molecules are characterized by rings containing at least one atom other than carbon. These compounds are structurally similar to cyclic organic hydrocarbons, but their properties can vary widely from those of their hydrocarbon counterparts and are largely governed by the identity, location, and number of heteroatoms present in the molecule. It is this rich diversity of physical and biological properties that has led to intense study of heterocyclic compounds. It follows then that heterocyclic chemistry is the study of all aspects of heterocyclic compounds. Heterocyclic chemistry has its origin in organic synthesis, natural products chemistry, and medicinal chemistry. Indeed, most heterocyclic chemists will also consider themselves organic chemists and many will consider themselves to be natural products chemists and medicinal chemists as well. This relationship between disciplines arises because heterocyclic molecules are fundamental building blocks of biological systems. In addition to its importance to biology, heterocyclic chemistry has seen intense study in diverse areas such as dyes, photosensitizers, coordination compounds, polymeric materials, and many other fields.
