Manuscript Editing for Nature Chemistry Journal Articles

Order Manuscript Editing Founded in 2009, Nature Chemistry publishes the most significant research in all areas of chemistry, from catalysis to computational and materials chemistry. Springer Nature publishes it, with full-time professional editors in London.

Articles run up to 3,000 words of main text, excluding the abstract, Methods, references, and captions, with up to six display items and ten Extended Data figures. The abstract runs 150 words with no references. References follow Nature house style, numbered in sequence. New compounds need full characterization, including proton and carbon NMR. First submissions may be PDF, Word, or compiled LaTeX; final files use standard classes. Chemical structures use the ChemDraw journal template. Double-anonymized review is optional. Our editors cut the main text to its word count and move detail to Methods. Submissions go through the journal's online system.

Natural Intelligence for Nature Chemistry

Natural Intelligence is our name for editorial judgment: an editor who reads your manuscript the way Nature Chemistry's editors and peer reviewers will and verifies every change before it comes back to you. We read as a chemist does, checking that each claim in the main text is backed by a figure, Extended Data item, or Methods section. Track Changes stays on throughout.

Our Promise

We will ensure that the final draft you receive is completely ready to submit to Nature Chemistry. We work with you until it is ready or refund your payment in full. That commitment has held since 2002.

Our editors do not have access to your manuscript until an order is placed. Your draft is secure until you decide to proceed.
