該雜志提供了關于配位化學中當前感興趣和重要主題的快速評論文章。術語“配位化學”被廣泛地解釋，包括有機金屬化學、理論化學和生物無機化學的各個方面。一般來說，審查過去幾年中某一特定領域的調查進展，或討論用特定技術獲得的結果。該期刊還收錄了包括主要化學群、過渡金屬化學群和有機金屬化學的年度評論的專刊。好的評論對于從事無機化學工作的人來說是必不可少的教育工具。協調化學審查將繼續作為這一重要領域信息性關鍵調查的焦點。

The journal offers rapid publication of review articles on topics of current interest and importance in coordination chemistry. The term 'coordination chemistry' is interpreted broadly, and includes aspects of organometallic, theoretical and bioinorganic chemistry. In general the reviews survey developments in a particular area during the last few years, or discuss the results obtained with a particular technique. The journal also incorporates special volumes containing annual reviews of the main group chemistry, on the transition metal group chemistry, and on organometallic chemistry. Good reviews are essential educational tools for those working in inorganic chemistry. Coordination Chemistry Reviews will continue to act as a focal point for informative critical surveys of this important area.
