About the journal
Aims and Scope
The main aim of the journal is to publish scientific work on the role of molecular asymmetry in both biologically active and non-biologically active molecules in respect to their pharmacological, biological, and chemical properties. Drugs, pesticides, and other xenobiotics will be a major interest.
Papers on the chemistry (physiochemical, preparative synthetic, and analytical), pharmacology, clinical pharmacology, toxicology, and other biological aspects of chiral molecules will be published.
Among the topics to be covered are stereospecific synthesis, stereoselective analysis, preparative separation of chiral molecules, the influence of chirality on pharmacokinetics (absorption, distribution, protein binding, biotransformation, etc.), the influence of chirality on pharmacodynamics (drug-receptor interactions, pharmacological and toxicological activity), and the influence of chirality on clinical pharmacology (therapeutic index and response, bioavailability, adverse drug reactions, drug-drug interactions). Papers will also be published on regulatory and legal aspects in the development, testing, and marketing of chiral compounds.
In addition to original research papers, the journal will publish brief reviews, short communications, and conference reports. Book reviews will also appear.

Stereochemical Nomenclature
The guidelines for stereochemical nomenclature used in this journal are presented below. For compounds which are not covered by these guidelines follow the ACS Style Guide.
Apparently Pure Stereoisomers. These must be designated by the sign of their optical rotation (when applicable) and/or by their configuration (absolute configuration in the case of enantiomerism, relative configuration in the case of diastereomerism).
The sign of the optical rotation is indicated by (+)- or (?- placed at the very beginning of the name, i.e., before the descriptor of configuration. The signs d- and l- are not allowed as they are frequently confused with D- and L-. The prefixes "dextro" and "levo" are allowed when they form part of an established name (e.g., levodopa).
The absolute configuration of enantiomers must be given as far as known. Descriptors of absolute configuration are as follows:
?I>R and S defined according to the sequence rule of Cahn-Ingold-Prelog 旸 and L (for amino acids and sugars) ?I>P and M (for helices)
The relative configuration of diastereomers must be indicated as follows:
旻or -diastereomers (so-called geometrical isomers), the E and Z descriptors based on the sequence rule of CIP must be used rather than the prefixes cis and trans or syn and anti. 旻or achiral diastereomers without stereogenic double bonds ( -diastereomers), be they cyclic or acyclic, adequate nomenclature, cis and trans, erythro and threo, or meso, must be used. 旻or chiral s-diastereomers (cyclic or acyclic), the absolute configuration of each element of chirality should be indicated when known. If this is not the case, the relative configuration must be indicated (e.g., cis/trans, erythro/threo, endo/exo, R*/S*, / ). Examples follow: (+)-(R)-warfarin (Z)-2-methyl-2-butenoic acid (?-(P)-hexahelicene cis-1,2-dichlorocyclohexane (?-(1R;2R)-pseudoephedrine trans-decalin
Further indications can be found in the IUPAC rules or in monographs (e.g., Eliel, E.L. and Wilen, S.H., Stereochemistry of organic compounds. New York: Wiley, 1994).
Mixtures of Stereoisomers
Racemates must always be explicitly indicated as such using the prefix rac杄.g., rac-ibuprofen.
Mixtures of diastereomers must be indicated by such notation as (Z;E)- or cis-, trans- which do not imply a 50/50 mixture. When a mixture of stereoisomers has a well-defined proportion, this must be specified as in the following examples:
?R/S:80/20)-warfarin ?Z/E:90/10)-clopenthixol
Structural Formulas of Stereoisomers
Special attention must be given to the preparation of the structural formulas of compounds that contain stereogenic elements. For substituents that point toward or away from the observer, use flying wedges and dotted lines, respectively.
Each structural formula must be accompanied by an explicit caption indicating whether the formula implies absolute or relative configuration.
Electronic Proofing
In order to expedite the publication and on-line posting of articles in Wiley InterScience, Chirality now offers electronic proofing. Corresponding authors with e-mail addresses will be sent page proofs (and paperwork, such as reprint order forms) in pdf format via e-mail.

Instructions for Deposition of Cystallographic Data
(i) These notes concern the crystallographic data associated with organic and metal-organic structures.
(ii) Prior to submitting the manuscript to a journal the author should deposit with the Cambridge Crystallographic Data Centre (CCDC) the data corresponding to the intended publication.
The preferred mode of deposition is by e-mail as a plain text ASCII file. Wherever possible the CIF format should be used but other formats will be accepted. The e-mail address is: deposit@ccdc.cam.ac.uk
(iii) Within three working days, the CCDC will provide the author with a deposition number for each crystal structure reported in the manuscript. Each number is a 6-digit integer, e.g., CCDC 170345.
(iv) The author should submit to the journal the manuscript together with the deposition number(s).
(v) When the paper is published an appropriate footnote will be printed, for example:
"CCDC ...... contains the supplementary crystallographic data for this paper. These data can be obtained free of charge via www.ccdc.cam.ac.uk/conts/retrieving.html (or from the Cambridge Crystallographic Data Centre, 12, Union Road, Cambridge CB2 1EZ, UK; fax: +44 1223 336033; or deposit@ccdc.cam.ac.uk)"
(vi) The deposited data will not be archived to the Cambridge Structural Database until the paper has been published. If, after 18 months, the paper has not been published, the CCDC will contact the depositor to determine what should be done with the data.
Notes for Authors: Guidance for deposition can be obtained from www.ccdc.cam.ac.uk/conts/depositing.html
Author Submission Guidelines for Supplementary Material
Chirality authors can now publish supplementary material online in Wiley InterScience. Supplementary material may include (but is not limited to) video clips, large sections of tabular data, program code, or electronic graphical files that are otherwise not suitable for print media. When submitting material for consideration please follow the guidelines below.
Submission of Supplementary Material
Peer review: Supplementary material must be submitted at the time of peer review. Submit a paper copy of the material (in the case of material that exists in electronic form only, please consult the editor to whom you submitted the paper).
Acceptance and electronic submission: Once material has been accepted by the editors, it must be submitted in electronic form on PC or Macintosh 3.5" diskette, zip disk, or CD ROM, or via FTP to ftp.wiley.com (user ID chiral password diff&4; see FTP submission notes below).
All files submitted must be accompanied by a text file named README. The README file should include the following information:
Title of Paper Authors and their affiliations Filename, file size, file type Brief description of material
The data and the README file should be archived together using one of the popular archive protocols such as ZIP, TAR, GZIP, or SIT. If you have more than one piece of supplementary material, you should submit a separate archive for each, with an accompanying README file; however, if it is intended that the multiple files be downloaded as a single unit by the enduser, submit one archive and one README file.
Data file types: There are no restrictions on filetypes of the data that you submit. Please keep in mind, however, that the more universal the filetype the more accessible to the community. The use of popular compression protocols is highly encouraged. If your material is presented in PostScript format, the submission of an accompanying Adobe Acrobat PDF file is encouraged, in that event both formats will be offered to the journal's readers. In cases where PDF files do not accompany a PostScript file, only the Postscript will be offered.
FTP Submission Notes: Submission of accepted material via FTP is encouraged. The FTP address is ftp.wiley.com. When prompted for username enter chiral. When prompted for password enter diff&4. This will lead to a directory reserved for Chirality uploads. You will not be able to see a listing of the files in this directory, including the ones that you upload.
Please note: The upload area allows upload only and does not allow downloads. When the FTP is complete, alert the publisher via an email to cmcnelis@wiley.com. Include your name and the name(s) of the files that you uploaded.
Publication and Access Supplementary material for published articles will be made available via the Chirality World Wide Website (http://www.interscience.wiley.com/chirality). Click on the 揝upplementary Material?link, which will bring you to a page that lists all supplementary material by journal volume. The title, authors, and volume/page number will in turn be hyperlinked to a page that describes the material in detail and offers a FTP download hyperlink. In addition, a hyperlink in the article抯 abstract online and a footnote in the printed article抯 title page will lead the reader to the supplementary material.
Disk Submission Instructions
Please return your final, revised manuscript on disk as well as hard copy. The hard copy must match the disk.
The journal strongly encourages authors to deliver the final, revised version of their accepted manuscripts (text, tables, and, if possible, illustrations) on disk. Given the near-universal use of computer word-processing for manuscript preparation, we anticipate that providing a disk will be convenient for you, and it carries the added advantages of maintaining the integrity of your keystrokes and expediting typesetting. Please return the disk submission slip below with your manuscript and labeled disk(s).
Guidelines for Electronic Submission
Text
Software and format. Microsoft Word is preferred, although manuscripts prepared with any other word processor are acceptable. Refrain from complex formatting; the publisher will style your manuscript according to the journal design specifications. Do not use desktop publishing software such as Aldus PageMaker or Quark XPress. If you prepared your manuscript with one of these programs, export the text to a word processing format. Please make sure your word-processing program's "fast save" feature is turned off. Please do not deliver files that contain hidden text: for example, do not use your word processor's automated features to create footnotes or reference lists.
File names. Submit the text and tables of each manuscript as a single file. Name each file with your last name (up to eight letters). Text files should be given a three-letter extension that identifies the file format. Macintosh users should maintain the MS-DOS "eight dot three" file-naming convention.
Labels. Label all disks with your name, the file name, and the word processing program and version used.
Illustrations All print reproduction requires files for full color images to be in a CMYK color space. If possible, ICC or ColorSync profiles of your output device should accompany all digital image submissions.
Storage medium. Submit as separate files from text files, on separate disks or cartridges. If feasible, full color files should be submitted on separate disks from other image files. 3-1/2" disks, CD, or Iomega Zip disks can be submitted. At authors' request, disks will be returned after publication.
Software and format. All illustration files should be in TIFF or EPS (with preview) formats. Do not submit native application formats.
Resolution. Journal quality reproduction will require greyscale and color files at resolutions yielding approximately 300 ppi. Bitmapped line art should be submitted at resolutions yielding 600-1200 ppi. These resolutions refer to the output size of the file; if you anticipate that your images will be enlarged or reduced, resolutions should be adjusted accordingly.
File names. Illustration files should be given the 2- or 3-letter extension that identifies the file format used (i.e., .tif, .eps).
Labels. Label all disks and cartridges with your name, the file names, formats, and compression schemes (if any) used. Hard copy output must accompany all files.
Print and return with labeled diskette(s)
