Chemistry International (CI) is the newsmagazine of the International Union of Pure and Applied Chemistry (IUPAC). News about IUPAC, its chemists, publications, recommendations, conferences and the work of its Divisions and Committees along with special feature articles is published quarterly in CI.

From 2022 onwards, CI is an online only publication and is freely accessible to all readers. The print edition has been discontinued.

In recognition of IUPAC’s Centenary in 2019, a new initiative, the Top 10 Emerging Technologies in Chemistry, was launched. The purpose of the initiative is to showcase the value of Chemistry and chemists and to inform the general public on how the chemical sciences contribute to the well-being of society and the sustainability of planet Earth. An article about The Top 10 Emerging Technologies in Chemistry is published annually in CI. For further information go to: https://iupac.org/what-we-do/top-ten/
