Aims & Scope

Aims

Metal-Centered Chemistry (MCC) aims to be a leading international forum for advancing cutting-edge research on the design, behavior, and application of metal-centered systems. The journal’s mission is to bridge foundational discoveries in organometallic and coordination chemistry with transformative innovations across diverse fields, including catalysis, energy, medicine, materials science, and sustainable technologies. By fostering interdisciplinary dialogue and collaboration, we strive to accelerate solutions to global challenges while advancing the frontiers of inorganic and organometallic chemistry.

The journal is committed to publishing rigorous, peer-reviewed work that highlights scientific originality, methodological innovation, and practical relevance. Through this, we aim to empower researchers, industry professionals, and policymakers with insights that drive progress in both academic and applied contexts. Journal of Metal-Centered Chemistry is published quarterly online by Scilight Press.
