The Great Chemistry Race

摘要

Having got to such a flying start in 2016, ChemistrySelect has kept up the momentum going round lap 2 in 2017. Figure 1 gives an overview of what we achieved in 2017. The journal is now indexed on Web of Science and has been accepted for indexing on Scopus. "In pole position" our most highly cited paper so far is "Ion Mobility Separations of Isomers based upon Long Path Length Structures for Lossless Ion Manipulations Combined with Mass Spectrometry" by Richard D. Smith et al. Table 1 gives the top ten most-cited papers so far over the last two years. In addition, if you have worn out your tires on the track, you should check out the paper with highest altmetric score (34) that we published in 2017-"Novel Acid Catalysts from Waste-Tire-Derived Carbon: Application in Waste-to-Biofuel Conversion" by Abdou Lachgar, M. Parans Paranthaman and coworkers, an extensive collaboration by groups at the Oakridge National Laboratory, Wake Forest University, Georgia Institute of Technology and The University of Tennessee. Good collaborations make for a winning team!
