Aims and Scope
Nature Reviews Chemistry is an online-only journal for the weekly publication of Reviews, Perspectives and Comments in all disciplines within chemistry.
Our Reviews aim to be balanced and objective analyses of the selected topic – with descriptions of relevant scientific literature and discussions that are easy to grasp for recent graduates in any chemistry-related discipline, as well as informing principal investigators and industry-based research scientists of the latest advances. Reviews should provide the authors' insight into future directions and their opinion of the major challenges faced by researchers in the field.
Perspectives – as the name suggests – take a look at a topic from a slightly different angle. They may offer more personal viewpoints, explain the historical background to a topic, or discuss some of the social, ethical or environmental factors related to chemistry research in academia and industry.
Our Comments address topical issues in chemistry — the aim is to cover subjects that are of interest to chemists generally that are not necessarily focussed on the results or practice of chemistry research. This may include, but is not limited to, discussions of education in chemistry and the practicalities of research outside the academic environment.
Reviews, Perspectives and Comments are commissioned by the editorial team.

Verified Reviews
Note: Verified reviews are sourced from across review platforms and social media globally.
Not invited to submit, proposed a proposal, edited it myself for several weeks. Interested, asked for modifications to the proposal. After the modifications, given feedback to write the full text within a month. After submitting the full text, it took a month for review (before the review, the editor made some modifications to the formatting of the article). After two months, feedback was received. Modifications were made for a month and returned. Instead of sending it for review, the editor directly pre-accepted it with many comments and formatting suggestions. Based on the feedback, the article was modified at least five or six times, and then the images were modified back and forth five or six times. Finally, before publication, the editor redrawn all the images and tables, and made modifications to the text.

Hello, may I ask how long it takes for the status to change to "Manuscript received" after submission? You mentioned that the editor reviewed it for a few weeks, so what was the submission status during this period? Thank you.
