Journal of Chemistry and Applications is an open access online journal which publishes review articles, letters, short communications and guest edited thematic issues on novel research in the field of chemistry. All papers are peer-reviewed and newly selected panels of international referees have been appointed to ensure that the process must be done rapidly and to the highest standards. Special topics will provide accounts of research, written periodically at the invitation of the Editorial Board by chemists under the direction of Editor-in-Chief. With this international outlook in mind, a new international Editorial Board and Advisory Board have been appointed.
