First Impact Factor of 2.991 for Advanced Synthesis & Catalysis: One of the most highly cited journals in chemistry

摘要

The Journal Citation Reports 2002 Impact Factor for Advanced Synthesis & Catalysis is 2.991; i.e., there was an average of 2.991 citations per article in ASC in its first years. This makes ASC one of the most highly cited journals in organic and organometallic chemistry. Only three journals topped 3.0 in the Impact Factor list of organic chemistry journals publishing original research articles. All others had lower Impact Factors than ASC (Figure1).
