The fledgling State of Israel began to publish its scientific activity in 1951 under the general heading of Bulletin of the Research Council of Israel, which quickly split into sections to accommodate various fields in the growing academic community. In 1963, the Bulletin ceased publication and independent journals were born, with Section A becoming the new Israel Journal of Chemistry.The Israel Journal of Chemistry is the official journal of the Israel Chemical Society. Effective from Volume 50 (2010) it is published by Wiley-VCH.The Israel Journal of Chemistry is an international and peer-reviewed publication forum for Special Issues on timely research topics in all fields of chemistry: from biochemistry through organic and inorganic chemistry to polymer, physical and theoretical chemistry, including all interdisciplinary topics. Each topical issue is edited by one or several Guest Editors and primarily contains invited Review articles. Communications and Full Papers may be published occasionally, if they fit with the quality standards of the journal. The publication language is English and the journal is published twelve times a year.

以色列這個剛剛起步的國家于1951年開始在以色列研究委員會公報的總標題下出版其科學活動，該公報迅速分成若干部分，以適應日益壯大的學術界的各個領域。1963年，公報停止出版，獨立期刊誕生，A區成為新的以色列化學雜志。以色列化學雜志是以色列化學學會的官方雜志。自第50卷（2010年）起生效，由Wiley VCH出版。《以色列化學雜志》是一個國際性的同行評議的出版物論壇，專門討論化學各個領域的及時研究課題：從生物化學到有機和無機化學，再到聚合物、物理和理論化學，包括所有跨學科課題。每個專題都由一個或幾個客座編輯編輯，主要包含受邀的評論文章。如果通訊和全文符合期刊的質量標準，可以偶爾發表。出版語言為英語，期刊每年出版十二次。
