“…In the last two decades, two significant changes have occurred in communicating chemical research. One is the now complete digitalization of the scientific information flow, 36 with several chemistry journals no longer printing journal issues but producing only articles in digital format (normally in both portable document format and hypertext markup language). Another is the now predominant use of the World Wide Web to search for scientific information, 37 especially through free search services such as those offered by Google Scholar.…”

Chemistry is among the last of the core natural sciences to embrace preprints, namely, the publication of non peer-reviewed scientific articles on the Internet. After a brief insight into the origins and the purpose of preprints in science, we conducted a concrete analysis of the concrete situation, aiming at providing an answer to several questions. Why has the chemistry community been late in embracing preprints? Is this in relation with the slow acceptance of open-access publishing by the same community? Will preprints become a common habit also for chemistry scholars?
