Dear xx
Does Inorganic Chemistry consider paper that have been deposited on the preprint server arXiv? I ask because I am boycotting (i.e. not reviewing for or submitting to) all journals that don't.
Best regards, Jan

Prof. Jensen, Our policy with regards to arXiv is as follows:
If a submission to IC is essentially the same as a preprint in arXiv, then it will not be considered for publication, but if it differs significantly (and contains significant new work), then it will be considered.
I hope this answers your question.

Dear xx
I am afraid I won't be able to review this paper, because I find Inorganic Chemistry's policy with regard to pre-print deposition on arXiv too restrictive and not in the best interest of science. I urge you to re-consider this policy, in which case I would be happy to serve as a reviewer.
Best regards, Jan
