155 '"'Analyst INSTRUCTIONS TO AUTHORS Criteria for Publication The Analyst publishes original research papers on all aspects of the theory and practice of analytical chemistry, fundamental and applied, inorganic and organic, including chemical, physical, biochemical, biomedical, clinical, pharmaceutical, biological, automatic and computer-based methods. Papers on new techniques and instrumen- tation, detectors and sensors, and new areas of application with due attention to overcoming limitations and to underlying principles are all equally welcome. All contributions should represent a significant development in the particular field of analysis and are judged on the criteria of ( i ) originality and quality of scientific content and (ii) appropriateness of the length to content of new science.Thus, papers reporting results which would be routinely predicted or result from application of standard procedures or techniques are unlikely to prove acceptable in the absence of other attributes which themselves make publication desirable. Applications papers (particularly, those dealing with spectrophotometry or chelating reagents for high-performance liquid chromatograph) must contain a comparison with existing methods and demonstrate advantages over accepted methods before publication can be considered. Descriptions of methods should be supported by experimental results showing accuracy, precision and selectivity. Although short articles are acceptable, the Society strongly discourages fragmentation of a substantial body of work into a number of short publications.Unnecessary fragmentation will be a valid reason for rejection of manuscripts. Analyst referees are also asked to comment on the appropriateness of any optimization andor experimental design procedures used and the correctness of any statistical procedures applied for the evaluation of results. Papers that do not give due consideration to these topics may be rejected. There is no page charge for papers published in The Analyst. The following types of papers will be considered. Original research papers. Communications, which must be on an urgent matter and be of obvious scientific importance. Rapidity of publication is enhanced if diagrams are omitted, but tables and formulae can be included. Communications receive priority and are usually published within 5-8 weeks of receipt.They are intended for brief descriptions of work that has progressed to a stage at which it is likely to be valuable to workers faced with similar problems. A fuller paper may be offered subsequently, if justified by later work. Although publication is at the discretion of the Editor, communications will be examined by at least one referee. Reviews, which must be a critical evaluation of the existing state of knowledge on a particular facet of analytical chemistry. However, original work may be included. Simple literature surveys will not be accepted for publication. It is desirable that potential review writers should contact the Editor before embarking on their work. Copyright. The whole of the literary matter (including tables, figures, diagrams and photographs) in The Analyst is Royal Society of Chemistry copyright and may not be reproduced without permission from the Society or such other owner of the copyright as may be indicated.Papers that are accepted must not be published elsewhere except by permission. Submission of a manuscript will be regarded as an undertaking that the same material is not being considered for publication by another journal in any language. US Associate Editor. Papers from North America can be submitted to Dr. J. F. Tyson, Department of Chemistry, University of Massachu- setts, Amherst, MA 01003, USA. To enhance the speed of processing of manuscripts, these papers will usually be refereed in the United States or Canada. Regional Advisory Editors.For the benefit of potential contributors outside the United Kingdom and North America, a Group of Regional Advisory Editors exists. Requests for help or advice on any matter related to the preparation of papers and their submission for publication in The Analyst can be sent to the nearest member of the Group. Currently serving Regional Advisory Editors are listed in each issue of The Analyst. Manuscripts. Papers should be typewritten in double spacing on one side only of the paper. Copies of any related, relevant, unpublished material and raw data should be made available on request. Each table and illustration should be on a separate sheet at the end of the text; three copies of text and illustrations should be sent to the Editor, The Analyst, The Royal Society of Chemistry, Thomas Graham House, Science Park, Milton Road, Cambridge CB4 4WF, or directly to the US Associate Editor, and a further copy retained by the author.Administration and Publication Procedure. Receipt of a contribu- tion for consideration will be acknowledged immediately by the Editorial Office. The acknowledgement will indicate the paper reference number assigned to the contribution. Authors are particu- larly asked to quote this number on all subsequent correspondence. All papers (including conference presentations submitted for special issues) are sent simultaneously to at least two referees, whose names are not disclosed to the authors. On the basis of the referees' reports, the Editor decides whether the paper is suitable for publication, either unchanged or after appropriate revision. This decision and relevant comments of the referees are communicated to the author.Differences of opinion are mediated by the Editor, possibly after consultation with further referees, or, in the last resort, by the Editorial Board. When rejection of a paper is recommended, the Editor informs the author, and return the top copy of the manuscript. Authors have the right to appeal to the Editorial Board if they regard a decision to reject as unfair. Authors will receive formal notification when papers are accepted for publication. Proofs. The address to which proofs are to be sent should accompany the paper. Proofs should be carefully checked and returned immediately (by first class mail, air mail or fax). Particular attention should be paid to numerical data both in the tables and text.Reprints. Fifty reprints of each paper are supplied free on request. Additional reprints can be purchased if ordered at the time of publication. Details are sent to authors with the proofs. Notes on the Writing of Papers for The Analyst Manuscripts should be in accordance with the style and usage shown in recent copies of The Analyst. Conciseness of expression is expected: clarity is increased by adopting a logical order of presentation, with suitable paragraph or section headings. Spellings should be in accordance with the Oxford English Dictionary. To facilitate indexing, at least one forename should be included with each author's family name. The corresponding author should be clearly indicated.Descriptions of methods should be supported by experimental results showing accuracy, precision and selectivity. The recommended order of presentation is as indicated below: (a) Title. This should be as brief as is consistent with an adequate indication of the original features of the work. The title should usually include the analyte being determined or identified, the matrix and the analytical method used. ( b ) Summary. A summary of about 250 words. giving the salient features and drawing attention to the novel aspects. should be156 provided for all papers. It should be essentially independent of the main text and include relevant quantitative information such as detection limits, precision and accuracy data. All papers must contain a comparison with existing methods and demonstrate advantages over accepted methods before publication can be considered.(c) Keywords. Approximately five keywords or key phrases, indicating the topics of importance in the work described, should be included after the summary. ( d ) Aim of Investigation. A concise introductory statement indicat- ing the a i d s of the study and the need for the work should be clearly stated and supported by judicious citation of relevant published literature. The usefulness of the work should be explained, again with reference to appropriate literature. The section should conclude with an unambiguous statement of the novel features of the work. ( e ) Description of the experimental procedures. This section should include information about all the experimental work conducted including, if appropriate, a brief description of relevant preliminary work.The choice of any optimization procedure (which should be in accordance with some accepted protocol) must be justified and the figure of merit clearly stated. If appropriate, this section should include information about experiments in which relevant parameters were varied (and about any experimental design used). This section should also include information on how any new method was validated, including a description of the statistical procedures used. Experimental procedures should be concise; there is no need to give detailed descriptions of well known operations. Suppliers of equipment and materials and their locations should be mentioned. cf, Results and Discussion.This section should not include any descriptions of experimental work. Results are best presented in tabular or diagrammatic form (but not both for the same results), followed by an appropriate statistical evaluation, which should be in accordance with accepted practice. A subjective description of the results should be avoided. For example, a new procedure for multi-element determinations which produced results for which the concentrations of 8 out of 10 of the elements determined in a standard reference material were statistically indistinguishable from the certificate values should be described in those terms and not referred to as ‘excellent agreement’. This is particularly important in the summary. Any discussion should comment on the scope of the method and its validity, followed by a statement of any conclusions drawn from the work.A separate conclusions section is not encouraged but, if included, it should not simply duplicate statements in the discussion. (8) Acknowledgements. Contributors other than co-authors, com- panies or sponsors may be acknowledged in a separate paragraph at the end of the paper. Titles may be given but not degrees. ( h ) References. References should be numbered serially in the text by means of superscript figures, e.g., Foote and Delves.’ Burns et a1.’ or . . . in a recent pape? . . .. and collected in numeri- cal order under ‘References’ at the end of the paper. They should be listed, with all the authors’ names and initials, in the following form (double-spaced typing): Ebdon, J. R., Lucas.D. M.. Soutar, I., and Swanson, L., Anal. Proc., 1993, 30, 431.

References to conference abstracts which have not been published in the open literature are not acceptable. The number of references must be kept to a minimum. Nomenclature. Current internationally recognized (IUPAC) chem- ical nomenclature should be used. Common trivial names may be used, but should first be defined in terms of IUPAC nomenclature. A listing of all relevant IUPAC nomenclature publications appears in the January issue.Symbols and units. The SI system of units, as recommended by IUPAC, should be followed. Their basis is the ‘Systkme Inter- nationale d’UnitCs(S1). A detailed treatment is given in the ‘Green Book’: Quantities, Units and Symbols and in Physical Chemistry (Blackwell. Oxford, 2nd edition, 1993). Some of the more important guidelines are: ( a ) A metric system will always be used in preference to a non- ( b ) S1 will be the standard usage. (c) The units used to record the definitive values of ‘critical data’ or quantities measured to a high degree of accuracy will be SI. These units are summarized in the Appendix. metric one. The style for papers in The Analyst includes: ( a ) dimensions should preferably be given in metres (m) or in ( b ) temperatures should be expressed in K or “C (notOF); ( c ) wavelengths should be expressed in nanometres (nm) (not mp); ( d ) frequency should be expressed in Hz (or kHz, etc.).not in c/s or c.p.s; rotational frequency can be denoted by use of s-’; in mass spectrometry, signal intensity should be expressed in counts s-’ and not in Hz; millimetres (mm); (e) radionuclide activity should be expressed in becquerels (Bq); df) the micron (p) will not be used; lo-‘ m will be 1 pm.157 When non-Si units are used they must be adequately explained unless their definition is obvious (e.g. “C and A). The derivation of derived non-Si units should be indicated. Abbreviations. Abbreviational full stops are omitted after the common contractions of metric units ( e . g . , ml, g, pg, mm) and other units represented by symbols.Abbreviations other than those of recognized units should be avoided in the text except after definition. Upper case letters without points should be used for abbreviations for techniques and associated terms, subsequent to definiton, e.g., HPLC. AAS, XRF. UV, NMR, SCE. The abbreviations Me, Et, Pr“, Bun, Bu’, Bus. But, Ph, Ac, Alk. Ar and Hal can be used; others should be defined. Carboxy groups are written C02R, not COOR. Substituents should be indicated by R (one) or by R1, R2, R3 . . . (more than one). Percentage concentrations of solutions should be stated in inter- nationally recognized terms. Thus the symbols ‘m’ instead of ‘w’ for mass and ‘v’ for volume are to be used. The following show the manner of expressing these percentages together with an acceptable alternative given in parentheses: YO m/m (g per 100 g); % m/v (g per 100 ml); YO v/v. Further implications of the use of the term ‘mass’ are that ‘relative atomic mass’ of an element ( A , ) replaces atomic weight, and ‘relative molecular mass’ of a substance (M,) replaces molecular weight.Concentrations of solutions of the common acids are often conveniently given as dilutions of the concentrated acids, such as ‘dilute hydrochloric acid (1 + 4)’, which signifies 1 volume of the concentrated acid mixed with 4 volumes of water. This avoids the ambiguity of 1 :4, which might represent either 1 + 4 or 1 + 3. Dilutions of other solutions can be expressed in a similar manner. Molarity is generally expressed as a decimal fraction (e.g., 0.375 mol dm-’).Tables and diagrams. Table column headings should be brief. Tables consisting of only two columns can often be arranged horizontally. Tables must be supplied with titles and be so set out as to be understandable without reference to the text. Either tables or graphs may be used but not both for the same set of results, unless important additional information is given by so doing. The information given by a straight-line calibration graph can usually be conveyed adequately as an equation or statement in the text. Column headings and graph axis labels should be in accord with SI conventions. Thus, the expression of numerical values of a physical quantity should be dimensionless, i.e., the quotient of the symbol for the physical quantity and the symbol for the unit used, e.g., c/mol dm3, or some mathematical function of a number, e.g., In(c/mol dm3).Further examples are vlcm-’, Ucm, mass of substance/g and flowrate/ ml min-I. For units which are already dimensionless, i.e., ratios such as YO or ppm, the type of ratio is indicated in parentheses, e.g., c (YO) or c (ppm). The diagonal line (solidus) will not be used to represent ‘per’. In accordance with the SI system, units such as grams per millilitre are already expressed in the form g ml-’. It should be noted that the ‘combined’ unit, g ml-’, must not have any ‘intrusive’ numbers. To express concentration in grams per 100 millilitres, the word ‘per’ will still be required: Concentratiodg per 100 ml. It may be preferable for an author to express concentrations in grams per litre (g I-‘) rather than grams per 100 ml.Most diagrams will be retraced and lettered in order to achieve uniform line thicknesses and lettering size and style. However, all diagrams should be carefully and clearly drawn on good quality paper and should be carefully and clearly lettered. If possible, chromato- grams and spectra, complicated flow charts, circuit diagrams, etc., should be supplied as artwork for direct reproduction in order to avoid time-consuming and expensive redrawing. The clearest copy should be without lettering. Three complete sets of illustrations should be provided. two sets of which may be made by any convenient copying process for trans- mission to the referees. All diagrams should be accompanied by a separately typed set of captions.Wherever possible, extensive identifying lettering should be placed in the caption rather than on lines on graphs, etc. Photographs. Photographs can be submitted if they convey essential information that cannot be shown in any other way. They should be submitted as glossy or matt prints made to give the maximum detail. Colour photographs will be accepted only when a black-and-white photograph fails to show some vital feature and can be supplied either as prints or transparencies. Appendix The SI System of Units In the SI system there are seven base units- Physical quantity length mass time electric current thermodynamic temperature amount of substance luminous intensity Name of unit metre kilogram second ampere kelvin mole candela Symbol for unit m kg S A K mol cd There are two supplementary dimensionless units for plane angle (radian, rad) and solid angle (steradian, sr).Some derived SI units that have special names are as follows-158 Physical quantity energy force power electric charge electric conductance electric potential difference electric resistance electric capacitance frequency magnetic flux density radionuclide activity pressure, stress energy, work, heat inductance (magnetic induction) Examples of other derived SI units are- Physical quantity area volume density velocity angular velocity acceleration magnetic field strength Name of unit joule newton watt couloml siemens volt ohm farad hertz 3 Symbol Definition for unit of unit J kgm2s-2 N k g m r 2 = Jm-1 W kgm2s-3= Js-1 C As S m-2 kg-1 s3A2 (S-1) v kgm2s-3A-l = JA-1s-1 S F A2~4kg-lm-2= AsV-1 Hz s-1 kg m2 s-3 A-2 = V A-1 tesla T kgs-2A-1 = Vsm-2 becquerel Bq s-1 pascal Pa m-1 kgs-2(= Nm-2) joule m2 kg s - ~ (= N m = Pa m3) henry H m2 kg s-2 A-2 (= VA-1 s) J SI unit square metre cubic metre kilogram per cubic metre metre per second radian per second metre per second squared ampere per metre Certain units will be allowed in conjunction with the SI system, e.g.- Physical quantity time plane angle volume magnetic flux density temperature, t energy mass (magnetic induction) Name of unit minute degree litre gauss degree Celsius electronvol t unified atomic mass unit Symbol for unit min 1 G "C eV 0 U Symbol for unit m2 m3 kg m-3 m s-1 rad s-l m s-2 A m-1 Definition of unit 6 0 s (~~1180) rad m3 = dm3 10-4 T 1.6021 x 10-19~ tl"C = TIK - 273.16 1.66054 x kg The other common units of time (e.g., hour and day) will continue to be used in appropriate contexts.

159 JOURNALS OFTHE ROYAL SOCIETY OF CHEMISTRY Refereeing Procedure and Policy (1994) 1.0 Contributions to Dalton, Perkin and Faraday Transactions, J. Mater. Chem., The Analyst, J. Anal. At. Spectrom. and J. Chem. Research 1.1 Introduction This document summarises the procedure used for assessing papers submitted to the four Transactions, J. Mater. Chem., The Analyst, J. Anal. At. Spectrom., and J. Chem. Research, and provides guidelines for referees engaged in this assessment. 1.2 Subject Matter Papers are submitted to the various journals according to subject matter. If it is felt that a paper would be published more appropriately in an RSC journal other than the one suggested by the author, the referee should inform the Editor. The topics covered by the various journals are as follows.Dalton Transactions (Inorganic Chemistry). All aspects of the chemistry of inorganic and organometallic compounds, including bioinorganic chemistry and solid-state inorganic chemistry; the applications of physicochemical techniques to the study of their structures, properties and reactions, including kinetics and mechanism; new or improved experimental techniques and syntheses. Faraday Transactions (Physical Chemistry and Chemical Physics). Gas-phase kinetics and dynamics; molecular beam kinetics and spectroscopy, photochemistry and photophysics; energy transfer and relaxation processes: laser-induced chemistry; spectroscopies of molecules, molecular and gas- phase complexes: quantum chemistry and molecular structure, statistical mechanics of gaseous molecules and complexes; spectroscopies, statistical mechanics and quantum theory of the condensed phase, computational chemistry and molecular dynamics; colloid and interface science, surface science, physisorption and chromatographic science, chemisorption and heterogeneous catalysis, zeolites and non-exchange phenomena; electrode processes, liquids and solutions; solid-state chemistry (microstructures and dynamics); reactions in condensed phases; physical chemistry of macromolecules and polymers; materials science; thermodynamics; biophysical chemistry and radiation chemistry.Perkin Transactions I (Organic Chemistry). All aspects of organic and bio-organic chemistry. These include synthetic organic chemistry of all types, organometallic chemistry, chemistry and biosynthesis of natural products, the relationship between molecular structure and biological activity, the chemistry of polymers and biological macromolecules, and medicinal and agricultural chemistry where there is originality in the science. Perkin Transactions 2 (Physical Organic Chemistry).Physicochemical aspects of organic, organometallic, and bio- organic chemistry, including kinetic, mechanistic, structural, spectroscopic and theoretical studies. Such topics include structure-activity relationships and physical aspects of biological processes and of the study of polymers and biological macromolecules. Journal of Materials Chemistry. The chemistry of materials, particularly those associated with advanced technology; modelling of materials; synthesis and structural characteris- ation; physicochemical aspects of fabrication; chemical, structural, electrical, magnetic and optical properties; applic- ations.The Analyst (Analytical Science). Theory and practice of all aspects of analytical chemistry, fundamental and applied, inorganic and organic, including chemical, physical and biological methods. Journal of Analytical Atomic Spectrometry. The development and analytical application of atomic spectrometric techniques, including ICP MS. Journal of Chemical Research. All areas of chemistry. The format of this journal (one- or two-page printed synopsis in Part S, plus microform version of authors’ full text typescript in Part M) makes it particularly suitable for papers containing lengthy experimental sections or extensive data tabulations. 1.3 Procedure Each manuscript is considered independently by two referees. The referees’ reports constitute recommendations to the appropriate Editorial Board, which is empowered to take final action on manuscripts submitted.The Editor, acting for the Editorial Board, is responsible for all administrative and executive actions, and is empowered to accept or reject papers. It is the Editor’s duty to see that, as far as possible, agreement is reached between authors and referees; although the referees may need to be consulted again concerning an author’s reply to comments, further refereeing will be avoided as far as possible. 1.3.1 Adjudication of disagreements. If there is a notable discrepancy between the reports of the two referees, or if the difference between authors and referees cannot be resolved readily, a third referee may be appointed as adjudicator.In extreme cases, differences may be reported to the appropriate Editorial Board for resolution. When a paper is recommended for rejection by referees, the Editor will inform the authors and return the top copy of the manuscript. Authors have the right to appeal to the Editorial Board if they regard a decision to reject as unfair. The Editor may refer to the Editorial Boards any papers which have been recommended for acceptance by the referees, but about which the Editor is doubtful. 1.3.2 Anonymity. The anonymity of referees is strictly preserved, and reports should be couched in terms which do not disclose the identity of the writer.A referee should never communicate directly with an author, unless and until such action has been sanctioned by the Society, through the Editor. 1.3.3 Conjidentiality. A referee should treat a paper received for assessment as confidential material. Information acquired by a referee from such a paper is not available for citation until the paper is published.160 REFEREEING PROCEDURE AND POLICY (1 994) 1.4 Policy The primary criterion for acceptance of a contribution for publication is that it should advance scientific knowledge significantly. Papers that do not contain new experimental results may be considered for publication only if they either reinterpret or summarise known facts or results in a manner presenting an advance in chemical knowledge. Papers in interdisciplinary areas are acceptable if the chemical content is considered satisfactory.Papers reporting results regarded as routine or trivial are not acceptable in the absence of other, desirable attributes. Although short papers are acceptable, the Society strongly discourages the fragmentation of a substantial body of work into a number of short publications; such fragmentation is likely to be grounds for rejection. The length of an article should be commensurate with its scientific content; however, authors are allowed every latitude (consistent with reasonable brevity) in the form in which their work is presented. Figures and flow-charts can often save space as well as clarify complicated arguments, and should not be excised unless they are unhelpful or really extrava- gant.If a paper as a whole is judged suitable for the Journal, minor criticisms should not be unduly emphasised. It is the responsibility of the Editor to ensure the use of reasonably brief phraseology, and to assist the author to present his work in the most appropriate format. However, referees should not hesitate to recommend rejection of papers which appear incurably badly com- posed. It should be clearly understood that referees’ reports are made in confidence to the Editor, at whose discretion comments will be transmitted to the author. To assist the Editor, referees are requested to indicate which comments are designed only for consideration, as distinct from those which, in the referee’s view, require specific action or an adequate answer before the paper is accepted.Referees may ask for sight of supporting data not submitted for publication, or for sight of a previous paper which has been submitted but not yet published. Such requests must be made to the Editor, not directly to the author. 1.4. I Authentication of new compounds. Referees are asked to assess, as a whole, the evidence in support of the homogeneity and structure of all new compounds. No hard and fast rules can be laid down to cover all types of compounds, but the Society’s policy is that evidence for the unequivocal identification of new compounds should wherever possible include good elemental analytical data; for example, an accurate mass measurement of a molecular ion does not provide evidence of purity of a compound and must be accompanied by independent evidence of homogeneity.Low-resolution mass spectrometry must be treated with even more reserve in the absence of firm evidence to distinguish between alternative molecular formulae. Where elemental analytical data are not available, appropriate evidence which is convincing to an expert in the field may be acceptable. Spectroscopic information necessary to the assignment of structure should normally be given. Just how complete this information should be must depend upon the circumstances; the structure of a compound obtained from an unusual reaction or isolated from a natural source needs much stronger supporting evidence than one derived by a standard reaction from a precursor of undisputed structure. Referees are reminded of the need to be exacting in their standards but at the same time flexible in their admission of evidence.It remains the Society’s policy to accept work only of high quality and to permit no lowering of standards. 1.5 Titles and Summaries Referees should comment on titles and summaries with the following points in mind. Titles of papers are used out of context by several organizations for current awareness purposes. To enable such systems to serve chemists adequately, titles must be written around a sufficient number of scientific words carefully chosen to cover the important aspects of the paper. Summaries should preferably be self-contained, so that they can be understood without reference to the main text. 1.6 Speed of Refereeing The Editorial Boards are anxious to maintain and to reduce further if possible the publication times now being achieved. In this connection, referees should submit their reports with the minimum of delay, or return manuscripts immediately to the Editor if long delay seems inevitable.1.7 Suggestions of Alternative Referees The Editor welcomes suggestions of alternative referees competent to deal with particular subject areas. Such suggestions are particularly helpful in cases where referees consider themselves ill-equipped (in terms of specialist knowledge) to deal with a specific paper, and in highly specialized or new areas of research where only a limited number of experts may be available. If, in such a case, the alternative and the original referee work in the same institution, the manuscript may be passed on directly after informing the Editor.1.8 Short Papers and Letters ‘Short Papers’ are published in J. Chem. Research. They are intended for the description of essentially complete pieces of work which can be described in two printed pages or less. They are NOT preliminary communications, nor in any way an alternative to Chemical Communications, for which there are additional criteria of novelty and urgency. The quality of material contained in a short paper should be the same as that in a full paper. Investigations arising out of some larger project but not prosecuted to the same degree are particularly appropriate for this format. A short paper should not normally exceed in length about 8 pages of typescript, including figures, tables, etc. It should comprise a one-sentence abstract and discussion, but adequate experimental details are required.As a consequence of its length, it appears in full in Part S with no microform version in Part M. ‘Letters’, published only in Dalton Transactions, are a medium for the expression of scientific opinions and views normally concerning material published in that journal; it is intended that contributions in this format should be published rapidly. The letters section is for scientific discussion, and is not intended to compete with media for the publication of more general matters such as Chemistry in Britain. Only rarely should a Letter exceed one printed column in length (about 1-2 pages of typescript). Where a letter is polemical in nature, and if it is accepted, a reply will be solicited from other parties implicated, for consideration for publication alongside the original letter.1.9 Relationship with Communications Journals In cases where a preliminary report of the work described has appeared (for example in Chemical Communications), referees should alert the editor to any excessive and unnecessary repetition of material; this can arise in connection with communications journals in which the restrictions on lengthREFEREEING PROCEDURE AND POLICY (1 994) 161 and the reporting of experimental data are less severe than those of Chemical Communications. Furthermore, the acceptability of the full paper must be judged on the basis of the significance of the additional information provided, as well as on the criteria outlined in the foregoing sections. 2.0 Contributions to Chemical Communic- ations Chemical Communications is intended as a forum for preliminary accounts of original and significant work, in any area of chemistry that is likely to prove of wide general appeal or exceptional specialist interest.Such preliminary reports should be followed up in most cases by full papers in other journals, providing detailed accounts of the work. It is Society policy that only a fraction of research work warrants publication in Chemical Communications, and strict refereeing standards should be applied. The benefit to the reader from the rapid publication of a particular piece of work before it appears as a full paper must be balanced against the desirability of avoiding duplicate publication.The needs of the reader, not the author, must be considered, and priority in publication should not be allowed to determine acceptability. Acceptance should be recommended only if, in the opinion of the referee, the content of the paper is of such urgency that rapid publication will be advantageous to the progress of chemical research. The length of Communications is strictly limited; only in exceptional circumstances should it exceed one printed page (two-and-a-half to three A4 pages of typescript) and referees should be particularly critical of manuscripts longer than this. Communications do not contain extensive spectroscopic or other experimental data, but referees may ask for sight of such data before reaching a decision. The refereeing procedure for Communications is the same as that for full papers, except that rapidity of reporting is crucial in order to maintain rapid publication.3.0 Communications submitted to Analytical Proceedings and J. Anal. At. Spectrom. Criteria for acceptance of communications submitted to Analytical Proceedings and J. Anal. At. Spectrum. are similar to those for contributions to Chemical Communications, except that they should be concerned specifically with analytical chemistry. A decision whether or not to publish rests with the Editor, who will obtain advice from at least one referee. 4.0 Communications submitted to Perkin, Dalton or Faraday Transactions or J. Mater. Chem. Criteria for acceptance of Communications submitted to Perkin, Dalton or Faraday Transactions or J.Mater. Chem. are similar to those for contributions to Chemical Communications, except that the work will be of more specialist interest. For Perkin and Dalton Communications inclusion of key experi- mental data is expected. Assessment is carried out by a small nucleus of referees, consisting largely of members of the appropriate Editorial Boards. 5.0 Contributions to Mendeleev Communic- ations Mendeleev Communications, published jointly by the Royal Society of Chemistry and the Russian Academy of Sciences, is a sister publication to Chemical Communications, containing preliminary reports of the same type, in any area of chemistry. The majority of contributions are from Russian authors. Assessment involves two stages of refereeing. Manuscripts submitted to the Moscow Editorial Office are refereed initially by a Russian scientist.If found acceptable they are then reviewed by Western scientists chosen by the Royal Society of Chemistry. Manuscripts submitted to the UK Editorial Office undergo this two-stage refereeing process in reverse. 6.0 X-Ray Crystallographic Work 6.1 All papers containing crystallographic determinations will be refereed by two referees, one a structural chemist. If the editor considers it advisable, the paper may also be sent to a specialist crystallographer for comment. Referees will not normally be expected to check values of structural parameters for publication (e.g. bond lengths and angles against atomic co- ordinates; this will be done after publication by the appropriate crystallographic data centre), but should still pay attention to the quality of the experimental crystallographic work.However their primary concern should be such new chemistry as is involved in the structure. 6.2 Papers will often contain the information in their titles that an X-ray structure determination has been carried out. However, this is not obligatory, especially if the X-ray determination forms only a minor part. Summaries should normally contain this information. 6.3 A structure referred to in a Communication will normally be fully refined. The Communication can then be considered to fulfil the archival function, and the structure determination may not require further detailed refereeing when presented as part of a full paper. In the full paper, the author’s purpose will then be served by a simple reference back to the original communication. However, if the crystallography is discussed again at any length in the full paper, the data should be re-presented to the referees in full, and re-published if considered necessary. 6.4 There may be other cases when an author wishes to publish a full paper in which the result of a crystal structure determination is discussed, but in which details or extensive discussion are considered unnecessary. The crystallographer may even be omitted as a co-author (for example when the determination is carried out by a commercial company). If the author is able to show the referees that this procedure is appropriate, it will be allowed provided that it does not lead to unnecessary fragmentation. However, the author must provide, as supplementary information, sufficient data relating to the crystal structure determination to allow a referee to make sure that the point made is correct, and co-ordinates etc. will be deposited. The brief published description of the determination should be supplemented by appropriate reference to ‘unpub- lished work’.

摘要:

FACSS What is FACSS? FACSS is the Federation of Analytical Chemistry and Spectroscopy Societies organized to sponsor annual conferences in the field of analytical chemistry. FACSS is a nonprofit organization governed by a board with representatives fiom six member organizations -- the American Chemical Society, the Analytical Division (ACS); the Analysis Division of the Instrument Society of America (ISA); the Association of Analytical Chemists (ANACHEM); the Society for Applied Spectroscopy (SAS); the Coblentz Society, and the Royal Society of Chemistry (RSC). FACSS conferences rely on a successfir1 combination of invited and contributed papers, workshops and short courses, and technical exhibits. The record of achievement is due to FACSS's 20 years of conference experience and to the contributions of scientists fiom the U.S.and abroad. Attendance at the annual meeting includes approximately 1,500 participants who can attend workshops and short courses given by experts in the various areas of analytical chemistry; visit the extensive exhibits of the most up-to-date analytical equipment and materials; select fiom approximately 1,000 papers and poster sessions that are presented throughout the week in parallel sessions; and enjoy sightseeing excursions. FACSS conferences are often called "just the right size," because they are large enough to cover the full range of analytical sciences and small enough to allow participants to talk with individual vendors, visit with colleagues, and just run into people they want to talk to. FACSS program sessions are recognized as being successfbl because they are presented by international leaders in the scientific community fiom academia, industry, and government, covering the wide range of analytical sciences: atomic spectroscopy, bioanalysis, clinical chemistry, chemometrics, gas and liquid chromatography, electrochemistry, environmental analysis, infiared spectroscopy, lasers, mass spectrometry, nuclear magnetic resonance spectrometry, process analysis, Raman spectroscopy, x-ray spectroscopy, and surface analysis.Who should attend? Any individual working in the field of analytical chemistry as a researcher, analyst, or technician will benefit. In fact, many people in the field regard FACSS as the one meeting a year that they can't afford to miss.Where is FACSS held? FACSS conferences are held in cities that also offer other attractions for participants. Meetings have been held in Philadelphia, Cleveland, Chicago, and elsewhere. The 1994 FACSS Conference will be held 2-7 Oct. in St. Louis.
