2 Preparing the text

2.1 Notes valid for all manuscripts

o Please ensure that all authors have seen, and agree to, the manuscript text as uploaded. This prevents extensive corrections at the proof stage.

o Manuscript titles should be as succinct and accurate as possible (maximum 115 characters), and without a reference. Ideally, titles comprise one or more keywords.

o Author line: The academic title (only Prof., or Dr.), first name, other initials, and surname of each author should be listed, and the authors should be linked to an address by means of references [a], [b], etc. An indicates each correspondence author.

o The address (preferentially in the country's official language), fax number, homepage, and e-mail address(es) of the correspondence author(s) are listed. If the authors belong to different research groups, each group should be listed under [a], [b], etc., corresponding to the references [a], [b], etc., in the author line.

o The suggestion for the Table of Contents should include a graphic (formula, figure, or scheme), accompanied by text, that refers to the graphic, of between 350 and 450 characters. Large figures and schemes must be avoided. The picture will be either placed to one side of the text, in which case its size should be 55 mm wide x 50 mm high (650 pixels x 590 pixels@300 dpi), or above the text across two columns, in which case its size should be 110 mm wide x 25 mm high (1300 pixels x 245 pixels@300 dpi).

o In the Abstract, the motivation for the work, the methods applied, the results, and the conclusions drawn should be presented. Like the title, the abstract should contain several keywords to aid finding the paper online. It should not mention graphical elements, tables, or references within the paper. Length instructions: Communications: 500-600 characters incl. spaces Full Papers: 800-1000 characters incl. spaces Reviews etc. 1000-1500 characters incl. spaces

o A maximum of five keywords should be given in alphabetical order, at least two of which must come from the Basic Keyword catalogue available on our homepage: http://www.wiley-vch.de/vch/journals/keyword.?sort=e.

o Supporting Information: Succinct text in English and the necessary graphics must be submitted separately as one .pdf or .doc file. It is not necessary to add the manuscript title and authors: a title page will be generated automatically based on the final title and author list. Only in the Supporting Information should the graphics be incorporated with the text and not be present as separate files. The Supporting Information should not include crystallographic data that are available from CCDC or FIZ.

3

o All Tables, Equations, Figures, and Schemes are to be mentioned in the text in numerical order, and please start with number 1, e.g. Table 1; [Eq. (1)] or, in text, Equation (1); (Figure 1); (Scheme 1). Please start these words with a capital letter, and do not use Roman but Arabic numerals.

o and should be used sparingly and consistently. Where they first appear in the text, the complete term—apart from very common terms such as NMR, IR, and tBu— should also be given. In articles that include a large number of abbreviations and acronyms, a glossary may be included at the end.

o Crystallographic data for organic and organometallic compounds: Before submission of the manuscript, send your data including author and journal details in cif format as a plain-text ASCII file by e-mail to: [email protected]. The data will be assigned a registry number, which should be included with the following text in the manuscript: CCDC ... contains the supplementary crystallographic data for this paper. These data can be obtained free of charge from the Cambridge Crystallographic Data Centre via www.ccdc.cam.ac.uk/data_request/cif.

o Crystallographic data for inorganic compounds: FIZ accepts only data deposited in electronic form (in CIP format). Before submitting your manuscript, send the data directly to FIZ by following the instructions at http://www.fiz-karlsruhe.com/depositing_crystal_structures.html?&L=1 The following standard text should be included in the manuscript: Further details of the crystal structure investigation(s) may be obtained from the Fachinformationszentrum Karlsruhe, 76344 Eggenstein-Leopoldshafen, Germany (fax: (+49) 7247-808-666; e-mail: [email protected]) on quoting the deposition number CSD-... (numbers CSD-... , -... , -... , and -...).

o If you use LaTeX, please send us the full set of required LaTeX files, including any aux and bib files if applicable. See instructions on our homepage. Do not include your own styles or classes. Do not use RevTeX or any other nonstandard packages.

o Please provide a biographical sketch (500 to 700 characters) and a portrait black-and-white photograph of each correspondence author.

o When re-using figures from other publications, please ensure that you have permission from the copyright holder to use the image. See the publisher's website for information on how to obtain permission.

2.2.3 Highlights and Communications

o Except for an Experimental Section in Communications, the main body of these article types should not be divided into sections.

2.3 Formatting the text

o is the preferred spelling. Authors are asked to make their manuscripts suitable for a heterogeneous readership and to be considerate to those readers for whom English is a foreign language—please use a simple, clear style, and avoid jargon.

o Greek letters are in the character font "".

o All references should be mentioned in the text.

o Formula numbers (i.e., numbers referring to chemical structures) should be in boldface (Arabic numerals and, if necessary, Roman lowercase letters). Please avoid Roman numerals.

o Please italicize letters that symbolize physical quantities, such as T for temperature, E for energy, or n for an unspecific number. Latin phrases such as "in situ" are not italicized.

o Please italicize stereochemical information (cis, Z, R), locants in a compound name (N- acetylimidazole), symmetry and groups (C2v), and prefixes in formulas or compound names such as tert-butyl or p-aminosalicylic acid.

o Common abbreviations for formulas can be used, such as Me, Pr, Bu, and Ph. Only in this case are prefixes such as iso-, n-, or tert- written as a single italic letter without a : iPr, nBu, tBu.

Examples: nBuLi, but n-butyllithium; tBuLi, but tert-butyllithium; nOct, but n-C8H17, -C6H11.

1 2 o Please indicate general substituents by R , R , not by R1, R2.

o D- and L- (stereochemical assignments), molar (M), and normal (N), should be in "small capitals".

o The oxidation state used with names of elements should be within parentheses; with element symbols it should be superscripted (iron(II), FeII; not I(III) but IIII).

o Please enclose formulas for coordination compounds in square (IUPAC recommendation).

5

2.4 References

o Please type references to literature or footnotes in the text in square brackets as superscripts after any .

[1,2] [1],[2] o Please type , rather than .

[1-5] [1,2,3,4,5] o Please type , rather than .

o Please cite the references as follows: Citation number in square brackets, author initials then surnames, , Journal name abbreviated according to the "Chemical Abstracts Service Source " (italicized), year of publication (boldface), comma, volume number (italicized), comma, first page or page range, full stop (or within a composite reference).

o Please cite the author names as follows: author initials then surnames, comma, next author. The penultimate and the last name should not be separated by "and", just by a comma.

o Please do not use a comma between the Journal name and the year.

o Please separate composite references by a)...; b)...; c)... ; etc. (not (a), (b), (c)). Please use a semicolon rather than a full stop.

o Please do not use within a journal name.

o In the Reference Section at the end of the manuscript, the citation numbers will be listed with square brackets (but not using superscripts).

o Please add a full stop and a space after the abbreviations in the reference section. For example: Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. USA.

o Please type Arabic numerals (e.g. 1,2, etc.), not Roman lowercase letters to indicate references.

o Please do not use "ibid".

o When citing publications from , please quote both German and International Editions. The page numbers of the German version can be found in the annual index of the International Edition and vice versa. Example: [1] a) H. J. Ache, Angew. Chem. 1989, 101, 1–21; Angew. Chem. Int. Ed.

o Equations and structural formulas in tables should be submitted both integrated in the table and as a separate graphics file - this will reduce the likelihood of errors when copyediting the manuscript. 7

3 Preparing the graphics ChemSusChem strives for uniform, easy-to-read graphics. Our philosophy is that high-quality graphics add to the impact and clarity of a scientific paper. Similarly, poorly prepared graphics may frustrate readers, and they may struggle to understand the scientific message of your paper.

In addition to these scientific arguments, high-quality graphics prepared according to the guidelines below will enable manuscripts to be processed much faster, shortening time to online publication.

Please exercise great care when preparing your figures for production!

In ChemSusChem, use of color is free of charge and actively encouraged! However, please bear in mind that in many institutes and libraries black-and-white printing of articles is still the norm. If you are unsure, check your graphics for clarity by printing them in black-and-white before uploading them.

3.1 Sizes and widths of manuscript graphics Within manuscripts, the width of graphics relates to column and pixel width as follows:

Intended width in PDF Actual width Width in pixels, at 300 dpi

0.5 column up to 43 mm up to 500 px

1 column 44 to 86 mm 501 to 1000 px

1.5 columns 87 to 134 mm 1001 to 1500 px

2 columns 135 to 177 mm (upper limit) 1501 to 2090 px (upper limit)

Although these sizes, and the guidelines that spring from them, are rooted in print presentation and online reading of PDFs, they also function well with other methods of content presentation (e.g., HTML). Very large graphics can be typeset by rotating them 90° (i.e., in "landscape" format), but this is best avoided by rearranging the graphic.

Note the importance of selecting and scaling the font, as this will affect both on- and off-screen clarity of information. Please use only Helvetica or Arial, and aim for a final text size of 1.8 mm.

3.2 Types of manuscript graphics ChemSusChem classifies graphics into one of four types: Schemes, Formulas, Equations, and Figures. The following pages have more details on best practices for each of these graphics types.

8

3.2.1 Schemes Schemes are used to describe chemical reaction sequences. They always have a caption. Typically they have reaction arrows to connect different chemical structures. The exact reaction conditions are detailed above the arrows (if concise) or in the caption (if extensive).

Reaction conditions can be detailed in Font: Arial. the caption. Use of the ChemDraw NO NH template ensures 2 2 consistency i,ii between structures and in case of multiple 21 22 schemes.

These structures, their numbers, and the reaction arrow are well positioned in space, relative to each other. Please make use of the alignment and distribution functions available in ChemDraw.

Example: Typical Scheme prepared by using our ChemDraw template.

o A ChemDraw template is available at: http://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/journal/10.1002/(ISSN)1864-564X/homepage/angew-cds.zip

o Preferred file format: .cdx (ChemDraw). Acceptable file formats: .tif (300 dpi), .eps

o Preferred : scheme1.cdx

o Typically reproduced in 50 to 86 mm (1 column) width. Other possible sizes are 87 to 134 mm (1.5 columns), or 135 to 177 mm (2 columns).

o Please use only Helvetica or Arial, and aim for a final text size of 1.8 mm.

o Lowercase letters are preferred for labeling panels within schemes; please avoid the use of capital letters (e.g., "a)", not: "A)").

o Please transfer comprehensive experimental details and other information (e.g., bond lengths and angles) to the scheme's caption.

o Please do not use boldface or italics in the graphics for regular text.

o For ions, please remove circles around the "+" or "–" signs.

o Please use solid and broken wedges to indicate absolute stereochemistry, and solid and broken bars to indicate relative stereochemistry. 9

o Data should be quoted with decimal points, not commas, and negative exponents (e.g., 25.8 J K–1 mol–1). o Please change "room temperature", "rt", or "r.t." to "RT". o Common abbreviations such as Me, iPr, sBu, tBu, Ar, and Ph should be used; general substituents 1 2 should be indicated by R , R (not: R1, R2). o Please do not write pH=x, but pH x.

10

3.2.2 Formulas Formulas are free-standing chemical structures. They do not have a caption, but usually include an Arabic numeral/Roman lowercase letter in bold below the structure that matches their number in the text (e.g., 1a, 22c).

Use of the ChemDraw NH2 template ensure consistent sizes, Font: Arial. bond lengths, bond angles, and fonts. 22 The number matches the numbering in the text.

Example: Typical formula prepared by using our ChemDraw template.

o A ChemDraw template is available at: http://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/journal/10.1002/(ISSN)1864-564X/homepage/angew-cds.zip

o Preferred file format: .cdx (ChemDraw). Acceptable file formats: .tif (300 dpi), .eps

o Preferred filenames: formula1.cdx

o If the formula's width is 43 mm or less, text can flow around it in "half-column" format. Other possible sizes are up to 86 mm (1 column), 87 to 134 mm (1.5 column), or 135 to 177 mm (2 column) widths.

o Common abbreviations such as Me, iPr, sBu, tBu, Ar, and Ph should be used; general substituents 1 2 should be indicated by R , R (not: R1, R2).

o For ions, please remove circles around the "+" or "–" signs.

11

3.2.3 Equations Equations are mathematical or chemical equations that are numbered in the text. Nowadays, most mathematical Equations can be written in normal text or by using MS Word's Equation Editor. Please do not use MathType. When uploading manuscripts with Equation Editor objects embedded in MS Word, it is important to save and submit the MS Word file as a .doc file, not a .docx file! Submitting equations as a graphic is necessary only in very special cases.

o For chemical reactions, a ChemDraw template is available at: http://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/journal/10.1002/(ISSN)1864-564X/homepage/angew-cds.zip

o Preferred file format: .tif. Acceptable file format: .jpg, .eps, .pdf

o Minimum resolution: 300 dpi.

o Preferred filenames: equation1.tif

o Typically reproduced in 1 column. Sizes of 87 to 134 mm (1.5 columns) or 135 to 177 mm (2 columns) are rare; more often the formula is set with a linebreak.

o Please use only Helvetica or Arial, and aim for a final font size of 1.8 mm.

o If the Equation includes a chemical structure, please format that structure according to the instructions for "Formulas".

12

3.2.4 Figures Figures can be used to represent any information that cannot be expressed by choosing a Scheme, Formula, or Equation. Figures always have captions to explain and elucidate their meaning. Please the distinction between bitmap and vector graphics: microscopy images, photos, and cartoon representations of materials and processes are typical bitmap images; x,y data plots (graphs) are typical vector graphics images.

3.2.4.1 Bitmap images

Font scaled to match figure‘s intended a)
