# Coordination Chemistry Reviews (coordination-chemistry-reviews)

## Journal positioning

Coordination Chemistry Reviews (CCR) is an Elsevier journal devoted to authoritative reviews across coordination, inorganic, and organometallic chemistry and their applications. Its defining character is critical synthesis of a coordination-chemistry theme: CCR publishes reviews — not primary research — that survey, organize, and critically assess a body of work centered on metal complexes, their bonding, structure, reactivity, and function. This includes metal–organic frameworks (MOFs), homogeneous and heterogeneous catalysis grounded in coordination chemistry, bioinorganic chemistry, photophysics and luminescence of complexes, supramolecular coordination assemblies, and energy and sensing applications. A review belongs here when coordination chemistry is the organizing principle and the topic is mature enough to synthesize yet active enough to need orientation. Readership is the inorganic and coordination-chemistry community. This skill is a **fit / venue-selection / re-framing** tool. It does not replace the journal's current official guidelines. Before submitting, re-check the live author instructions on the CCR / Elsevier site.

## When to trigger

- The author is writing a critical review centered on coordination, inorganic, or organometallic chemistry and names CCR as the target venue.
- A review surveys MOFs, catalysis, bioinorganic, photophysics, or supramolecular coordination chemistry, and the author is choosing between CCR, Chemical Society Reviews, Chemical Reviews, and Nature Reviews Chemistry.
- A coordination-chemistry topic has accumulated enough primary work to warrant an authoritative synthesis and the author needs CCR's scope and house style.
- The author needs CCR's review-type expectations, evidence bar, and desk-reject criteria before submission.
