Aims and Scope Organic compounds are the basis for life as we know it and continue to inspire a staggering range of new discoveries that impact our everyday lives. EurJOC shines a light on the global scientific efforts and pioneering researchers contributing to this fundamental field. We publish peer-reviewed innovative and sophisticated international research, encompassing broad-scale topics such as new synthetic methods, total synthesis, mechanistic studies, and bioorganic, physical-organic, and supramolecular chemistry. We support the global organic chemistry community in pioneering the next generation of synthetic developments of this essential and still rapidly evolving discipline. We understand the huge pressures the scientific community is facing every day and we want to support you. Chemistry Europe is an association of 16 chemical societies from 15 European countries. Run by chemists, for chemists—we evaluate, publish, disseminate, and amplify the scientific excellence of chemistry researchers from around the globe.

Community reports come from authors' own submissions (confidence 0.5) and are not a promise from the journal; for publisher figures, the journal's own definitions apply.

A hybrid journal charges the APC only when the author chooses open access; publishing under the subscription model is usually free.

The journal's website is authoritative for fees; sources were observed at different times and each keeps its own value, without averaging.
