separate

Use when targeting Accounts of Chemical Research (Acc Chem Res) or deciding whether a chemistry account manuscript fits this ACS venue. Encodes the journal's fit, framing, method-and-evidence bar, house style, official-submission re-check, and desk-reject heuristics. NOTE: Accounts of Chemical Research is a largely INVITED venue publishing concise author accounts of one group's own research program, not comprehensive reviews of a field or primary research papers.

When to use

• targeting Accounts of Chemical Research
• deciding whether a chemistry account manuscript fits this ACS venue
• evaluating whether a body of work merits an unsolicited Account submission
• clarifying distinctions between Accounts, Chemical Reviews, and Chemical Society Reviews
• understanding why a comprehensive literature review or primary research paper should be redirected
• assessing fit for a sustained, coherent personal research program
• checking method-and-evidence bar for author accounts
• reviewing house style and structure for concise author accounts

When not to use

• field-wide comprehensive reviews
• primary research reporting new unpublished results
• accounts of a single paper's findings
• replacing the journal's current official submission guidelines
