About the journal
Current Organic Synthesis publishes in-depth reviews on all areas of synthetic organic chemistry i.e. asymmetric synthesis, organometallic chemistry, novel synthetic approaches to complex organic molecules, carbohydrates, polymers, protein chemistry, DNA chemistry, supramolecular chemistry, molecular recognition and new synthetic methods in organic chemistry. The frontier reviews provide the current state of knowledge in these fields and are written by experts who are internationally known for their eminent research contributions. The journal is essential reading to all synthetic organic chemists. Current Organic Synthesis should prove to be of great interest to synthetic chemists in academia and industry who wish to keep abreast with recent developments in key fields of organic synthesis.

For online submission, please provide your complete manuscript in the form of a single zipped folder containing all the material (main text, figures/ illustrations, scanned photographs, tables, chemical structures drawn in ChemDraw) as separate files and a PDF version of the entire manuscript with all the figures/ illustrations / tables / chemical structures etc., embedded in the text exactly in the manner as they should appear in printing.
Authors are required to proofread the PDF version of their manuscript before submission. The article will be published exactly as received and the Publishers will not be responsible for any error occurring in the manuscript in this regard.
You may, however, still submit your abstracts and manuscripts through conventional surface mail.
Reviewing and Promptness of Publication: All papers submitted for publication will be immediately subjected to editorial scrutiny, usually in consultation with members of the Editorial Advisory Board. Authors are encouraged, however, to suggest names of possible referees for their submissions. Every effort will be made to assess the papers quickly and the decision conveyed to the authors normally within two weeks of the receipt of the paper. The papers will be typeset and the proofs dispatched by e-mail to the authors.
Proofs: Authors are sent page proofs by E-mail as PDF. To avoid delays in publication, proofs should be checked immediately for typographical errors and returned within 48 hours. Major changes are not acceptable at the proof stage.
Copyright: It is a condition of publication that manuscripts submitted to this journal have not been published and will not be simultaneously submitted or published elsewhere.
