CrystEngComm is a peer-reviewed online-only scientific journal publishing original research and review articles on all aspects of crystal engineering including properties, polymorphism, target materials, and crystalline nanomaterials.

It is published biweekly by the Royal Society of Chemistry and the editor-in-chief is Pierangelo Metrangolo.

[5] The journal has been involved in the development of nomenclature for crystal engineering,[6][7][8] which is gradually being adopted by researchers in the field.

[citation needed] CrystEngComm publishes the following types of articles: Research Papers (original scientific work), Communications (original work that merits urgent publication), and Highlights (short reviews of topics from the field of crystal engineering).

[1] In 2009, the five journals that have been cited most frequently by articles published in CrystEngComm are Inorganic Chemistry, Journal of the American Chemical Society, Angewandte Chemie International Edition, Chemical Communications and Crystal Growth & Design.
