TITLE (Word Style "BA_Title"). The title should accurately, clearly, and concisely reflect the emphasis and content of the paper. The title must be brief and grammatically correct. The space above the title is provided for the Journal logo. Do NOT delete this space. AUTHOR NAMES (Word Style "BB_Author_Name"). Include in the byline all those who have made substantial contributions to the work, even if the paper was actually written by only one person. Use first names, initials, and surnames (e.g., John R. Smith) or first initials, second names, and surnames (e.g., J. Robert Smith). Do not use only initials with surnames (e.g., J. R. Smith) because this causes indexing and retrieval difficulties and interferes with unique identification of an author. Do not include professional or official titles or academic degrees. At least one author must be designated with an asterisk as the author to whom correspondence should be addressed. AUTHOR ADDRESS (Word Style "BC_Author_Address"). The affiliation should be the institution where the work was conducted. If the present address of an author differs from that at which the work was done, indicate with a symbol and give the Present Address under Author Information. If more than one address, use symbols to match author names to address(es).

Supporting Information Placeholder ABSTRACT:

(Word Style “BD_Abstract”). All manuscripts must be accompanied by an abstract. The abstract should briefly state the problem or purpose of the research, indicate the theoretical or experimental plan used, summarize the principal findings, and point out the major conclusions. Abstract length is one paragraph.

TEXT (Word Style "TA_Main_Text"). For full instructions, please see the journal’s Instructions for Authors. Do not modify the font in this or any other section, as doing so will not give an accurate estimate of the formatting for publication and final length of the paper. FIGURES (Word Style "VA_Figure_Caption"). Each figure must have a caption that includes the figure number and a brief description, preferably one or two sentences. The caption should follow the format "Figure 1. Figure caption." All figures must be mentioned in the text consecutively and numbered with

Arabic numerals. The caption should be understandable without reference to the text. Whenever possible, place the key to symbols in the artwork, not in the caption. To insert the figure into the template, be sure it is already sized appropriately and paste before the figure caption. For formatting double-column figures, see the instructions at the end of the template. Do NOT modify the amount of space before and after the caption as this allows for the rules, space above and below the rules, and space above and below the figure to be inserted upon editing.

SCHEMES (Word Style "VC_Scheme_Title"). Groups of reactions that show action are called schemes. Schemes may have brief titles describing their contents. The title should follow the format "Scheme 1. Scheme Title". Schemes may also have footnotes (use Word Style "FD_Scheme_Footnote"). To insert the scheme into the template, be sure it is already sized appropriately and paste after the scheme title. For formatting double-column schemes, see the

instructions at the end of the template. Do NOT modify the amount of space before and after the title as this allows for the rules, space above and below the rules, and space above and below the scheme to be inserted upon editing. CHARTS (Word Style "VB_Chart_Title"). Groups of structures that do not show action are called charts. Charts may have brief titles describing their contents. The title should follow the format "Chart 1. Chart Title". Charts may also have footnotes (use Word Style "FC_Chart_Footnote"). To insert the chart into the template, be sure it is already sized appropriately and paste after the chart title. For formatting double-column charts, see the instructions at the end of the template. Do NOT modify the amount of space before and after the title as this allows for the rules, space above and below the rules, and space above and below the chart to be inserted upon editing. TABLES. Each table must have a brief (one phrase or sentence) title that describes its contents. The title should follow the format "Table 1. Table Title" (Word Style "VD_Table_Title"). The title should be understandable without reference to the text. Put details in footnotes, not in the title (use Word Style "FE_Table_Footnote"). Do NOT modify the amount of space before and after the title as this allows for the space above and below the table to be inserted upon editing. Use tables (Word Style “TC_Table_Body”) when the data cannot be presented clearly as narrative, when many precise numbers must be presented, or when more meaningful interrelationships can be conveyed by the tabular format. Do not use Word Style “TC_Table_Body” for tables containing artwork . Tables should supplement, not duplicate, text and figures. Tables should be simple and concise. It is preferable to use the Table Tool in your word-processing package, placing one entry per cell, to generate tables.

Displayed equations can be inserted where desired making sure they are assigned Word Style "Normal". Displayed equations can only be one column wide. If the artwork needs to be two columns wide, it must be relabeled as a

figure, chart, or scheme and mentioned as such in the text.

ASSOCIATED CONTENT Supporting Information (Word Style "Section_Content"). A brief statement in nonsentence format listing the contents of material supplied as Supporting Information should be included, ending with “This material is available free of charge via the Internet at http://pubs.acs.org.” For instructions on what should be included in the Supporting Information as well as how to prepare this material for publication, refer to the journal’s Instructions for Authors.

AUTHOR INFORMATION Corresponding Author (Word Style "Section_Content"). Give contact information for the author(s) to whom correspondence should be addressed.

Present Addresses (Word Style "Section_Content"). †If an author’s address is different than the one given in the affiliation line, this information may be included here.

Author Contributions (Word Style "Section_Content"). ‡These authors contributed equally. (match statement to author names with a symbol, if applicable)

Notes (Word Style "Section_Content"). The authors declare no competing financial interests. Any additional relevant notes should be placed here.

ACKNOWLEDGMENT (Word Style "Section_Content"). Generally the last paragraph of the paper is the place to acknowledge people (dedications), places, and financing (you may state grant numbers and sponsors here). Follow the journal’s guidelines on what to include in the Acknowledgement section.

REFERENCES (Word Style "TF_References_Section"). References are placed at the end of the manuscript. Authors are responsible for the accuracy and completeness of all references. Examples of the recommended formats for the various reference types can be found at http://pubs.acs.org/page/4authors/index.html. Detailed information on reference style can be found in The ACS Style Guide, available from Oxford Press.

SYNOPSIS TOC (Word Style “SN_Synopsis_TOC”). If you are submitting your paper to a journal that requires a synopsis graphic and/or synopsis paragraph, see the Instructions for Authors on the journal’s homepage for a description of what needs to be provided and for the size requirements of the artwork. To format double-column figures, schemes, charts, and tables, use the following instructions:

Place the insertion point where you want to change the number of columns From the Insert menu, choose Break Under Sections, choose Continuous Make sure the insertion point is in the new section. From the Format menu, choose Columns In the Number of Columns box, type 1 Choose the OK button Now your page is set up so that figures, schemes, charts, and tables can span two columns. These must appear at the top of the page. Be sure to add another section break after the table and change it back to two columns with a spacing of 0.33 in. Table 1.
