Just Accepted Manuscripts
“Just Accepted” manuscripts are peer-reviewed and accepted for publication. They are posted online prior to technical editing, formatting for publication and author proofing. The American Chemical Society is posting just accepted, unredacted manuscripts as a service to the research community in order to expedite the dissemination of scientific information as soon as possible after acceptance. “Just Accepted” manuscripts appear in full as PDF documents accompanied by an HTML abstract. They are accessible to all readers (free registration required) and citable by the Digital Object Identifier. The manuscripts posted on the “Just Accepted” Web site are not the final scientific version of record; the ASAP (As Soon As Publishable) article (which has been technically edited and formatted) represents the final scientific article of record. The “Just Accepted” manuscript is removed from the Web site upon publication of the ASAP article, and the ASAP article has the same DOI as the “Just Accepted” manuscript. The DOI remains constant to ensure that citations to “Just Accepted” manuscripts link to the final scientific article of record when it becomes available.
ACS Symposium Series.
The first chapter in every book in the archives and the current year edition is available for all visitors to view, as well as the introduction and the image section where available.
