Rapid publication of short communications on new developments in kinetics and catalysis with special emphasis on reaction mechanisms. The following areas receive preferential treatment: - New materials in catalysis, - Biomimetic and enantioselective homogeneous catalysts, - Characterization of catalyst surfaces, - Heterogeneous catalysis (environmental and engineering aspects). Publishes book reviews and advertisements.

As of 2013 Reaction Kinetics, Mechanisms and Catalysis is co-published and distributed internationally by Springer. For more information please visit the journal’s website.
