[期刊] 投稿經驗

[dk191726 (DK狂)]

1.期刊: Green chemistry

2.結果: minor revised--> accepted

3.reviewer數目: 2

過程:

老闆覺得這次的題目創意性夠

因此和老闆討論後一開始先決定嘗試往高點數期刊投稿

反正被打槍就算了，就當作是經驗吧!

於是就各別往這些期刊投稿

a. Angewandte Chemie International Edition:


b. Journal of the American Chemical Society

   之前早有耳聞這類期刊審稿速度很快，就算被rejected 也不會太浪費時間

   投稿出去後，果然都只要一天就回來了

   主編覺得應用性太"specific"

   沒經過外審，直接rejected


c. Advanced materials

   這次的審稿時間大概三個禮拜，還以為進入外審階段，有機會了!!

   不過回來之後，結果也是一樣主編內審結果，直接rejected

   理由也是一樣"specific application"

   不過這位主編還推薦了另一個期刊給我參考

   以下是mail內容:

"> Thank you for submitting the above-mentioned manuscript.
>
> Regretfully, I must inform you that the manuscript will not be considered
> further for ADVANCED MATERIALS.
>
> The reasons for this are that we receive considerably more papers than we
> can possibly publish in the limited available space, and that the results
> and content of your manuscript seem to be more suitable for a polymer
> science-related journal.

Therefore what I recommend is that the manuscript is considered for our
> journal Macromolecular Rapid Communications (http://www.mrc-journal.de),
> which is the journal of choice for rapid publication of high priority
> results in the field of polymer science and ranks 2nd by Impact Factor
> (2009 IF: 4.3) among all journals predominantly publishing original
> research in general polymer science.
> The Editor of Macromolecular Rapid Communications has agreed to this
> suggestion and would be happy to have your manuscript reviewed for this
> journal.
>
> If you choose to follow this suggestion, please upload your manuscript as
> a new submission to Macromolecular Rapid Communications using
> http://www.manuscriptxpress.com. In your cover letter, please mention this
> correspondence to expedite the handling of your manuscrip


 後來老闆覺得如果參考他的期刊投稿，還不是要經過審查

 而且也會有被rejected的可能，在考慮IF點數下，決定不考慮這期刊

 繼續往下投，首先比較了Chem.commun. Anal.Chem. 及Green.Chem

 的IF，以及這次實驗的主題與期刊scopes，最後決定Green chemistry

 在cover letter中強調這次實驗的重點及其應用性

 最後提出建議的reviewer有三位

 1.Prof. Thomas Welton
 2.Prof. Vivek Polshettiwar
 3.Prof. Alejandro Cifuentes

前兩位算是與我這次實驗有關領域之大師


11/12 submission--> 12/3 回信內容: minor revised

I am pleased to inform you that your manuscript has been recommended for
publication in Green Chemistry subject to revision in line with the attached
reports

接著是reviewer的問題

第一位先說明accept的理由:
"This is a greatly improved synthetic methodology
resulting in ........, Therefore, I favour
publication as a communication in green chemistry."

接著提出五個問題，補一個ref. ，在討論中補上幾句話
都不算太刁難

第二位reviewer完全沒問題，並稱讚了一下，真是受寵若驚

"It is well-written and an excellent piece of work....
 I recommend its publication in Green Chemistry. "


12/7 revised manuscript
12/8 收到accepted letter，速度真是快!!

"Thank you for submitting your revised manuscript.  I am satisfied with the
changes you have made, and I am therefore pleased to inform you that your
paper has been accepted for publication in Green Chemistry."
