Chemical Interactions

About the Journal

Chemical Interactions (CI) Journal welcomes research that advances our understanding of chemical bonding and the complex interplay of physical forces in diverse chemical systems, from small molecules to complex biomolecular assemblies, and from the molecular scale to macroscopic phenomena. We invite contributions that shed light on the fundamental principles governing molecular interactions and chemical reactivity and their applications in fields ranging from materials science to biomedicine..

Our Journal Scope 

• Chemical bonding: Investigating the nature of chemical bonding, shedding light on molecular connectivity and reactivity in various chemical systems.

• Intermolecular Forces: Exploring the forces at play between molecules, such as hydrogen bonding, van der Waals interactions, and electrostatic forces, and their influence on molecular behavior and properties.

• Chemical Reactivity: Investigating the factors influencing chemical reactivity, including reaction kinetics, thermodynamics, and mechanisms, across different chemical systems and environments.

• Molecular Recognition: Examining the specificity and selectivity of molecular recognition processes, including host-guest interactions, enzyme-substrate binding, and receptor-ligand interactions.

• Surface Chemistry: Understanding the interactions occurring at interfaces and surfaces, including adsorption, catalysis, and surface modification, and their impact on material properties and applications.

• Solvation and Solution Chemistry: Studying solute-solvent interactions, solvent effects on chemical reactions, and the behavior of solutes in solution, including solvation dynamics and solubility phenomena.

• Coordination Chemistry: Investigating the bonding and reactivity of coordination compounds, metal-ligand interactions, and the coordination geometries and structures of metal complexes.

• Molecular Modeling and Simulation: Utilizing computational methods and theoretical approaches to elucidate molecular interactions, predict molecular structures, and simulate chemical processes at the atomic level.

• Biomolecular Interactions: Understanding the molecular interactions underlying biological processes, including protein-ligand binding, nucleic acid interactions, and protein-protein interactions, and their implications in drug discovery and biotechnology.
